Working from home

Not the most productive days and got the disappointing news that me working online from Athens isn’t possible as it sets a precedent. I’m not sure how as the other teachers are local and only locals will be employed. My manager tried many things to get me to stay but we’ve agreed I’ll let her know if I need work and can come back for a term. Unlikely this year as I’ve been away for four of the allowed six months..
So far my passport application hasn’t been returned so hopefully it’ll be processed in time!
