I noticed a charge on my credit card that I didn't immediately recognize this morning. A little investigation revealed that it was an annual subscription to Screencastify, which I used sporadically when teaching. Although I have no specific recollection, I'm sure I signed up for a free trial, which had been auto-renewing for the last couple of years.
I knew I had most likely enrolled using my school email, which was disabled, so accessing the account to cancel it would probably be more onerous than necessary. I sighed and tapped the sign-in with Google option, hoping it would somehow skip the school authentication. It did not, but when I clicked over to the next screen, I gasped. Rather than an error message, I got the two-factor screen just as my watch dinged with an access code. I had been reauthorized!
Even though my substitute onboarding has not been officially completed (HR is notoriously slow in that respect), my account has been reactivated, and I can access all my school stuff again. Aside from being available should the ideal sub position (Is that an oxymoron? I think it might be!) open up, that's all I really wanted anyway.
So, no rush, APS. I got what I applied for. Oh, and I canceled Screencastify, too.
