Good Gracious, people. If the meeting starts at 11AM and you
have to download the software to view the conference, get on the fargin computer at 10:45.

Why am I the only one who knows this?

1. I agree with Bush on this one
Not there and ready for the meeting, you're locked out.

Then again, none of my meetings involve attacking other countries.

9. I have a bunch of students giving presentations on their final projects today at 4 pm
Half of them have come to me today or yesterday wanting to discuss the 'direction' of their research. :grr: :wtf:

Apparently, cell phones these days have cool ring tones, texting keyboards, and cameras - but they don't come with calendars or clocks...

11. Seriously.
It is so rude to hold up a meeting like this. It's beyond rude, actually. Be on time. Not that hard, folks.

17. Interesting concept - so, you're saying that a whole room full of people
stopping what they're working on, traveling to another part of the building, and then sitting around for 30 minutes while some nimrod fiddles around with cables and CDs before calling in tech support is a bad idea? Sounds a bit revolutionary, but you may be on to something...

24. apparently I don't teach, since it appears that I've failed to communicate the idea
that a term project takes more than a day. However, I am employed by one the better campuses in the CSU (and to be fair, the half of the class that didn't wait until the last day has done quite well)...

27. I am stunned
Edited on Tue Jun-10-08 11:10 AM by jasonc
I was always amazed at friends of mine in college that would ask for help on a paper or some other project, when I would ask them when it was due they almost without fail said, "tomorrow..."

At that point, I refused to help them.

I on the other hand, had a calendar on which I would write down the due dates, and my daily, weekly, and monthly if required, goals to get the project done on time for all of my assignments that would take longer than one or two days.

Will Pitt bears a striking resemblence to Cliff. Wish I had one of his photos to do the side beside comparison.

37. I missed that.
I'm honored that I was informed "privately" this morning.

And it was explained in stunning detail as to how they came to this conclusion.

This is where I decided to end the correspondence.
