I used to get keep getting calls from recruiters 4 years into my first enlistment. The idiot from the Marine Reserve upon hearing that I was already in told me "I can get you outa that bro!", and also something about how I could apply for welfare and make more money that way. Up to that point I hadn't been rude because I didn't think it was worth blowing up at some rando on the phone, but that was the point when I hung up on him.

Edit: Oh and apparently everyone else loves this class that I hate the most so it's going to be fairly obvious who slams it in the evaluation.

My govt accounting prof is one of the laziest I've ever had, but luckily this translated into him deciding to not give us the final. Whew!

My worthless loving group wants to meet with our professor on Thursday. Don't know what for but I suspect it might be because I blew off off our meeting today to work on more pertinent stuff. I've already had to spend too much time on this poo poo and contributed more than some of them have. Hopefully I'll calm down between now and then and won't end up telling them all to gently caress themselves in front of our professor.

My class lasted forty minutes of the two hours we were slotted for going over our final art projects. I stayed behind with three other students and the teacher for another hour bullshitting about how terrible some of the kids in my class were.

Or if you're like me for small group presentation, you get the whispy art major who volunteers to compile everyone's notes and slides.

And then changes backgrounds, fonts, text colors through-out the entire thing to make it 'easier to read'.

We had a girl last semester pull that stunt on our Google doc slideshow. It looked like a second grader made it. Then she acted all hurt when we reverted it.

She also skipped a poo poo ton of class. Other than that she was this awful mix of bossy and flakey. Everything in that class was done in your group so the rest of us hated her a few weeks in. But she was one of the teacher's favorites so I got B+ at the end and she got an A despite the rest of us slamming her in peer review.

She also skipped a month of a class this semester then walked in one day like she never left. Apparently this didn't her on campus job at all.

We've been doing powerpoint presentations in my predominantly freshman intro to computing class this week. The army ROTC kid's was titled Military Technology: Aircraft. Wasn't bad until it got to the slide that had the dates for milestones in aircraft tech. Apparently the first military cargo plane came into existence in 2007, and no aircraft had rockets until 2003.

This is probably unethical as gently caress but see if you can get a copy of that presentation thanks

I'm going to have at least two pages of material about various remote sensing platforms and why I chose to use Landsat 8 instead. Then a bunch of tables, and some maps. Hopefully that gets me the 15 pages I need and I'm not having a stroke tomorrow at 2300.

That's the plan.

Copying from the Vent About Teachers thread:
I know you guys just submitted your final project but your Mexican colleague have some issues they want corrected :eng101:

I seriously doubt they do. Their semester is already over and they weren't excited enough to care much about it when they were in school. It's kind of hard to coordinate with kids in a different country when they're learning a different subject, have a semester that's a month shorter than ours, half as many credits, and pass/fail. In reality I think it's their instructer who's got an issue and probably wants something drastic changed before Wednesday. The Mexican students outright told us they hate him.

Our teacher is trying to push this collaborative cross-disciplinary stuff which I can understand. It'd be great if it worked out but he made a poor choice in who to partner us with. The amount of poo poo we've had to deal with seems like it should be worth more than 4 credits.

Edit: Turns out the issue was that we didn't use many of the photos they sent us. The problem we ran into is that 80% of the pictures they sent us had kids in them with their faces clearly visible. They're environmental science students so they don't know about the ethics standards we have to keep to, and obviously their instructer didn't take the time to explain it to them. I don't think they would have been happy if we'd pixelated out all of their faces like an episode of Cops either.

Treat her like a peer and an equal and have a great date. If it works out and you two are on the same mental plane, excellent. If not just bang her like 3-4 times and move on. If you cant bed her then just crank one off while thinking about how your life is half over and then look at motorcycles
