Some of the Special-est Snowflakes have the MOST grating voices?
My colleague is "conferencing" with one right now. She has that loud, whiny, harsh voice - kind of like Helen Thomas mixed with Ellen Degeneres with a dash of vintage Roseanne Barr. Among her complaints:
1. she cannot park in the faculty lot. (seriously, what the heck? Like he'd have control over that? I get so weary of student parking-complaints. Back in my day, I didn't even HAVE a car, I had to walk every-damn-where.)
2. her grade does not reflect her "effort."
3. the amount of time she has to spend working on homework outside of class "seems excessive."
4. She's "just not that good at science" and so apparently wishes to be exempted from the science class requirements.
And I'm sitting here with my door closed (trying to grade exams). I can STILL hear her. Argh.

Whiskey.
Tango.
Foxtrot.
Hey, I'm just about the world's worst when it come to literature and such nonsense, but I still had to take the classes.
WV: "imickedi" - the plaintive cry of the humanities majors who think it's unfair to make them take science classes.
