I Have Bad Days

I gave my senior class an extension for an assignment and they made a complaint against me because the due date was moved to a week before their exams. It’s my fault for allowing the extension because we have protocols in place to not have any assessments in place the week before examinations. I am going to be blatantly honest and say I really hated that a few of my students did that. I however, take full responsibility for my decision and took this into consideration for all my assessments. No more extensions. That was the lowlight of my day.

Oh dear. I'm sorry, miss. 😞 You try to do them a favor giving them more time to complete an assignment and they rat you out. At least you know not to do them anymore favors, little jerks. 😒

I know who the little pricks are but at the same time I know I am at fault too. Nevertheless, no more Miss Nice 😁@Carver

I find students these days tend to be a bunch of selfish, entitled pricks.

If possible just try and let it wash over you xx

Either that or REALLY start to mark them strictly. They'll learn not to fuck people over who have power over them 😏

Yes I’ve re-evaluated my stance with them. If they are going to follow strict procedures and make complaint against me, I’m going to be an asshole about it and play tit-for-tat. @Quizzical

@SW-User Absolutely! Everything to the letter from now on and ZERO tolerance for bullshit and late assignments 😉

I can agree to that. This cohort of seniors are getting away with a lot of things. Time to bring my inner mongrel out 👌🏻@Copperhead99

No, I have an untarnished legal record. I prefer it remained that way 😂@Copperhead99
