This is terrible! I went to /r/steam to learn about steamed hams but they were clearly grilled! I'm not even sure they were hams?!? 1 star, would not visit again!!
The wording is sort of forceful, but I assume the goal of the question is to have the students empathize with how things were for a Chinese immigrant at that time.
Ehh it's testing the kids to see how much they learned of the racism Chinese people faced on the West Coast (North America) back then. It's also a good way to have students emphasize empathize with those experiences too by making them write from that perspective.
I wound up installing the "Move Mouse" software to keep Microsoft Teams active. Seems to do the trick.
I used to show up as idle a lot because I have communications stuff like Teams on my (very slow, old, underpowered) work-owned laptop, and I do my actual work from my home PC. So the more I'm working, the less likely I am to show up as being active on Teams. But managers don't understand logic. They only understand a little green check next to your name. So... Move Mouse it is.
I used to do the same, with the exact piece of software, when I was a contractor for a big enterprise that didn't give me sh*t to do.
Even after asking multiple times for some assignments and integrating myself into the daily standups, manager meetings and made myself "part of the team" as much as possible, they didn't use me or my skills.
So naturally I went Eff that and just didn't care anymore. Whenever someone had an assignment for me to do, I'd get the job done in no time and go back to "busy idling"
Probably she wanted to stall the process as much as posible so that they could bill the service some more before cancelling.
That or they have a script to make the service as hard to cancel as posible and she was just parroting that, without really paying attention to what OP was saying.
If I were Bottom, I might not quit if my pay never decreased. I'd take the hit on my dignity to continue getting a Director salary for a worker's job...
