teachers you HATE...

[alyssa]

My American Lit./Writing teacher is SUCH a fucking asshole!

 

We had an assignment where we had to explicate a poem and use different color pens and symbols to outline different poetic elements and such, and my poem didn't have any sort of rhyme scheme or sound devices, so I noted that at the bottom of the poem.

 

Well, I got my paper back, and there's tons of marks saying "-2 rhyme scheme, -2 slant rhymes, -2 visual rhymes, -2 alliteration" etc etc and I got a ZERO on the assignment.

 

Then I went to ask him why I missed everything, and he told me it's because I didn't say that there were no rhyme schemes and such, and when I pointed out the note I had at the bottom he said "It wasn't in GREEN, I was looking for writing in green. How would I have seen the note at the bottom?" in the most assholey manner ever. My zero still stands.

 

ASSHOLE.

Oh wow...... I probably would have said something like "So you are saying that you are going to give me a zero because you as a teacher and from what I am understanding is that you didn't really go through my paper because I didn't had a green pen at the time?" and see what he had said..

[Carolyn Marie]

That is absolutely ridiculous, Alyssa. I would be just as upset as you are if I was in that situation.

[::Hayley::]

What the hell?

This is crazy!!

surely it can't be any way legal?

SUE!!!!!!!! his ass off :P

chi-ching, and then buy the school and paint it green.

maybe he'll see THAT!!

[Pseudonym]

so just study hard, ace the class, come back later in life when you're successful and show him your other kind of green :greedy:

[Bombadil]

Wow. What a nasty piece of work. You shouldn't accept stuff like that.

[Marisa]

That's so unfair. I hope you get to talk to him but do it in like really calm and cool way.

 

" Obviously you didn't read everything that I wrote down. I put a lot of hard work into this assignment and was clearly indicating with this sentence here* point to it* that I did not not use rhyme schemes. I feel as though this would have limited my creativity so I made sure to indicate that. I do not feel as though I should have a failing grade when the one who is at fault is clearly you."

 

 

 

I had a bitchy teacher once tell me that I wouldn't pass any college level math course because I missed a homework assignment two days in a row. HA. Well I did. took a math/calculus/statistic course every year I was at MSU. Who's laughing now?
