'I was excited for the challenge': Professor receives schedule change, but two coworkers claim the professor 'shouldn't be teaching...those classes'

Who knew college professors could be so petty? One professor ended up in a malicious compliance situation after their coworkers tattled on them! 

Every professor has a different style of teaching. Some have been around for decades, and teach the same lesson plan every semester without fail. Others are newer to the job, and with many years of teaching ahead of them. At this college, in a story told by r/HeWhoMustNotBeNamed, a tenured teacher and a new teacher teamed up to blast the OP. 

It seems quite petty from the outside: the OP claims that while they were finishing up their Master's degree, a schedule change allowed them to double the amount of classes they were teaching. Thankful for the extra cash, the professor carried on with their plans. But the other two professors, as mentioned above, were seriously annoyed that the OP would be allowed to teach these "credit classes." 

Next, this remote-working couple is seeking advice about how to share their computers!
