It's that time in the semester: we're all thinking about grading. Have a look at the discussion of Grade Inflation at Invisible Adjunct.
I must point out the reader, probably being cited by everyone who reads the blog, who quoted a colleague: "I teach for free; they pay me to do the grading."
Most of the time I feel the same: I really enjoy teaching, for lots of reasons. But I wonder how I'll feel about it when I'm full-time somewhere and more depends on how my students do than just my own feelings of accomplishment or defeat.
(Notice how I use "when" and not "if" in that sentence.)
