late to college classes? You?
Cabmando's college thread got me thinking about my youth a bit. I sometimes took late to evening class due to work. In LA, there's the dreaded traffic even back 30 years ago. I was late more the a few times, but walked in quietly, respectfully sat in the back. Most professors understood and said nothing but some were a real pain in my ass and rode me until I snapped back. In my later years in college, I had a cabinet shop about 45 min from school so when I needed to make dead line, I push the day as far as I could.
I had this self-righteous, religious studies professor rode my ass hard in front of class about coming on time to HIS all mighty lecture and that its very important to be there to listen to his BS. After a couple times, I had to ask if he was going to pay my rent and buy my groceries and pay my lease with his fantasy lectures and that I didn't give a rat's azz about his lectures because I was forced to take the class and he had an easy, high paying job and forgotten about what hard work was like when pinned against the wall with dead lines. He never bothered me again. There were a couple others that continued to argue until their faces turned blue and needed to win an argument no matter at what cause.
You guy come across anything like that?
