Lecturers

All of these are just my imagination and have nothing to do with real life. =)
Let me talk about some of the lecturers in my university..

One ask me to mark all of his students' mid term papers. Follow his schema. WTF? Free labor? Being a lab instructor does not mean I am here to be utilized like your secretary or assistant or whatever you call it...

Decided to confront him about this matter. And he claimed that this is part of my job. .|.

1 paper takes me 10 minutes and it would take approx. 6 hours in my case. I get paid per hour. Pay me and I would consider.. Well, lim pek busy watch anime and tv series while writing final year report occasionally when the mood come. No time help you mark your paper.

Anyhow, the work reduced after the confrontation. Only some simple questions need to be marked and the rest he would do it. Lazy bump. Fasting no need to mark paper? =.=

Let's see.. mark the paper during the lab? Or distribute it and ask students to mark them..

I'm not a person to be exploited. Emailed head of department (HoD) and waiting for reply about this issue. Good luck! Well, HoD pushed it back to the lecturer.

Another lecturer is kind of experienced and know what he is doing. Insist that there should be no user requirement on certain system development project. But basic requirement as a software engineering(my major) project is to have Software Requirement Specification(SRS). Duh.

He said that I should have taken System and Networking as my major for being good at programming and interested in networking. Hmm.. yea I like wireless networking specifically Wifi which is vulnerable to attackers. LOL.

My opinion is that what we learn or major in would not limit what we strive to be in the future. ^^

Another nice lecturer is kind of talkative. Helpful and try to answer whatever questions that I have. And even outside of the scope or topic of the class. One of the few nice lecturers which I would like to examine my final year project. Too bad that the place has been taken. Hope for the best then.
