Six months after having closed that book
June 17, 2007God, I hate teachers. Seriously, I really hate teachers.
First, a few days ago, we have a teacher of mine who insists I hand in a paper copy of one of my reports, despite the fact she already has that report in electronic format and all she has to do is press that goddamn print button. This means that I have to travel for two hours (by car, it’d be even worse (3-4hrs) via public transport) just to hand in a damn paper copy.
And to make matters even worse, I just got an email from my statistics professor, addressed to me and the girl I cooperated with during the course. The statistics course ended on 23rd December, 2006. I passed the exam with a high grade, and that girl and I finished all our assignments on time. We had to redo two of the assignments, which we did, again, on time. After the course, we heard nothing from the professor. We assumed that everything was okay since he didn’t contact us in any way.
Until today, almost half a year later. He just sent an email in which he stated that we still had to redo assignment #6. I was flabbergasted. Apart from the fact that we had already redone that assignment on 22nd of December 2006, he dares to contact us six months later saying we have less than a week to do the assignment!
Seriously. The guy can suck my big fat cock. There is no chance in hell that I am going to dive back into statistics again, six months after having closed that book (and especially not with that girl). I politely returned his email, pointing him to the 2nd version of our assignment, which has been sitting in the digital drop box for six months. If he returns that email saying the 2nd attempt was not good enough either, and that we have to redo it again, I will contact the exam commission. He should have contacted us in a timely fashion, a few weeks after, at worst.
This is exactly why I fcuking hate teachers. They have the authority to demand all sorts of unreasonable stuff from their students, they are almost always inflexible and unforgiving, but when it comes to their own tasks and duties, they just don’t give two shits. And as a student, you haven’t a fcuking leg to stand on.
Together with criminals and people working for local and central governments, teachers are at the very bottom of the social pyramid, if you ask me. I have such a deep disdain for those people.


Yes, I much prefer celebrities like Paris Hilton. They are the true champions worthy of our respect and admiration. I mean, c’mon, teachers should marry those damn books they’re always reading. OMG, LOL !1!

As far as the first idiot, can you just drop a copy in the mail instead of wasting time driving out there?

I have no idea, but I’m not even *going* to ask. I’m so sick of university at the moment. Summer couldn’t have come at a better moment.

Incompetent teachers should be shown the door. Here in American, in some places, it’s difficult to fire bad teachers because of the unions.

In Greece teachers are almost never fired. Civil workers are protected. And they also are paid better than the equivalent US teachers (post office workers too). So, trust me, it’s better what you already got.
