I am what an adjunct is supposed to be- I have a day job, and I am teaching a class based on my expertise in that day job. I am not using adjunct pay as a major part of my income.

And yet, students are always shocked by the reality of this stuff. If we talked about it more openly, they wouldn't be.

Example: Had to take a remote day because of a health flare. Wanted to go an explain what I have, what I feel, what I need to do.

In the end just said "I am having a health flare, nothing to worry about but I will need to work remotely today."

Boss responded with an ok and didn't demand details
