Kids these days… That's a sentence I hear often. 'They're always on their phones, they're not paying attention, they're not putting in the work'. Not all kids. But a lot. And I understand how frustrating it is for teachers and parents to discipline them. There are so many factors involved. One teacher was fed up with the current status and turned to Reddit to complain about what was happening in their school, and most likely in many more. They said that teachers were making things 'too easy' fo…

We all remember that moment sitting in front of a final exam (usually it was math), and you're just completely stumped. You have absolutely no idea what to do or how to even pretend like you know what you're doing. You either didn't study enough and you start to regret it, or your teacher is being ridiculously unfair by putting this question on the exam and you start to resent them. Still, there's nothing you can do about it at this point. You know you're going to at least get points off on thi…

Insurance companies like to convince us how much we ‘need them', promising us a path to the land of milk and honey. The time comes to reap some of those benefits they assured were ours, and then voila, they ghost us, lie to us, or tell us that we are not entitled to said benefits. Sigh, tsk, tsk, cough. Why must we always fight tooth and nail for what is rightfully ours? What are we even paying them for if they end up being no help? One person took to Reddit, r/maliciouscompliance, explaining h…

The only thing smarter than a student who follows a grading policy is the student who finds a clever loophole. This school needed to adjust its policies after too many athletes were seen failing their classes. So what were the teachers forced to do? Well, instead of the classic A-F scale, final grades were given on a number scale, where the only failing grade was a 1 (you could not get a 0). Additionally, all grades for some reason could only count tests. Perhaps this was a short-term solution…

A lot of people go to study abroad, whether it's because their dream school happens to be halfway across the world, or because they'd like to get out of the little town they're in for a chance at a fresh start, or maybe just to soak in some culture that isn't their own. In this case, u/Lukus-Galaktikus was enjoying his time in a foreign country, studying and making new friends. He lived in an apartment building that was full of other foreign students and got along fine with everybody. That is,…

College students are often blessed with teachers who like to go on tangents about their personal lives, ‘forgetting’ to relay the actual material they're supposed to be teaching for the students final exams. We all like to think we're interesting people, special even — but the fact of the matter is, nobody really cares about the time we found 20 bucks on the pavement, feelings aren't facts, and unlike Harry Potter, we're not the Chosen One. In this case, OP was a college student who got stuck w…

Here is yet another example of how teachers are heroes!

These answers were so wrong they were so right...

Partial credit?

This will be on the test.

Don't cheat it's wrong.
