So, week six ... 25% of my students have missed ...

I'm kinda getting pissed. To top it off, one of them went and complained, and I think I know who. She missed the focking midterm! I had 2 students actually NOT SHOW UP FOR THE MIDTERM!

 

I'm like the nicest teacher you ever had ... but I'm about to go ballistic. This class is really stretching my patience ... and it's not fair to the students that are really showing up and doing the work. I have already talked about the importance of attending class, and class participation TWICE. I went out of my way to schedule a fied trip last week, and 25% of them missed it. We have a guest speaker June 1 ... and if they don't all show up for that ... I'm really gonna lose it. Other teachers have told me, "Sometimes you get a class like that." But ... I'm there, every day, at 8 AM. I'd hafta be dead not to show up. Giants Fan is gettin' upset!

Your posts have been really angry lately. You're usually pretty mellow. I'm thinking everything is snowballing.

Couldn't be that they hate their instructor could it?

Let's review: Cat piss in my Jeep, crackheads in my Jeep, students focking up, not getting enough work, working too hard for the little money I am making, pot dealer dry .... yeah ... I'm a little uptight!
