More bullshit from Massive Shithead
rohina:
No, but it was an academic position, and it was in Australia, where the snowflakes aren't quite as special as they seem to be in North America.
witch:
That's pretty much the job I do, except I mostly cover computing with some generic thrown in. I would be in deep guano if I refused to see a student as you did Ro. I must take my revenge in much smaller, more petty ways. Like a recent student who has been resident here for 10 years but uses her 'lack of language' to do the rounds of the learning advisors. I play mind games with her, every question she asks me about what she should write, I rephrase and return to her. As in, 'no, I'm not going to tell you the answers to write'! She pretends I've misunderstood her and I continue to pretend to misunderstand her, still at least she only books me now when no-one else is available. :D
rohina:
Well, I think part of it was that I hated the job and didn't give a shit, and University policies at the time (budget cutbacks) meant that every term certain academic was on a 2-week contract. You never know what you can get away with until you have nothing to lose, I guess.
witch:
Yeah, I'd hate it too if that was all I ever got to do, but I do projects - currently a careers/CV/Personal Development Profile website also I'm in a group to revamp our four websites into one portal driven one, plus some teaching and next year some research so I do get variety. I also work on two campuses. I think I'd go nuts if I had to sit and do the same thing over and over.
Yeah, I guess you can have a lot of fun when you've nothing to lose. ;D

Rohina-
