    They shouldn't do this delay. It's a giant pain. The students get agitated with the changes.

    routine is so imporant in the SpNeeds class. I trained for it. I just couldn't hack it at the time. (something something functional alcoholic)

    The slightest deviation from routine completely overwhelms them. I'm only part-time and just an assistant so I'm not as involved a teacher. I don't know how they do it. Our teachers are so underappreciated and underpaid. They function as parent, teacher, friend.

    I don't think it makes it right if the hit is still rejected. That's a dangerous precedent, imho.

    In a format where the worker has no power, and the requester has all the power. that precident was set long ago. They could undo the rejection, but most requestors don't understand how the platform works.

    I am the only one that actually likes to do the matchstick hits. The last time they posted, I did enough to get a 5 dollar bonus
