"Pretending" Not To Work

I want to share something Dr. Lester shared with me from InsideHigherEd (link below). I think this highlights my organizational problem very succinctly. A community college in Texas, struggling to find adjuncts to teach classes (but not wanting to go over their cap on adjunct hours), now allows adjuncts to teach more, but only if they sign a statement saying that they are not teaching more hours. How crazy is that?

Reading this article from a human resources perspective, this solution to the adjunct cap seems to be creating a real nightmare for the college. The problem itself is an HR problem, or at least would appear to be to those who have not taken CTCH 622.

I would enjoy hearing any feedback on this!
