When one university student reached out to a classmate for help with her paper, she had no idea she was about to walk right into an epic prank. Desperate to finish her report before the deadline, the student asked for a look at her classmate's work, claiming she just needed some guidance on structure and presentation. What happened next was nothing short of astonishing. After receiving the original paper, she sent back her version for proofreading—only to have her classmate discover that she ha…

In every high school, there are a handful of students who not only do the bare minimum when it comes to work, but they're also pretty lame when it comes to cheating. Look, no one is going to outright condone stealing someone's answers on a test, but if you're going to be the fool that does it, at least be less obvious about it. This Redditor figured out that his classmate had been stealing his answers for the past few exams and was starting to worry that his teacher would think that the wrong p…

Being the nerdy kid in school had its pros and cons. It usually meant that you were smart, and did well in school. You actually enjoyed reading books and had no problem doing homework or studying for tests. Yet being the nerdy kid also meant that you weren't all that popular, and we all know how mean kids can get when they see something they don't like. Luckily, popularity in school doesn't really get you that far in life, but being smart and actually succeeding in school does, and this petty r…

These group projects are teaching students some skills, just not the ones they expected to learn. Why do teachers assign group projects ? It's a question that countless students of all ages find themselves asking year after year. Teachers were once students themselves. Did they all just have a great time with their own group projects ? Or did they think the hardships (ie. trying to schedule a time for 5 people to meet up; realizing the night it's due that no one has worked on the project) were…

Every kid wants to do well in school without actually putting in the hard work, or maybe that's just me. I wasn't the brightest crayon in the box, nor did I put in the work and effort to get good grades, and looking back, I can see how annoying that must have been for the other students, especially when I was involved in a group project. Those were the absolute worst… One student got really petty after one of his classmates tried to take partial credit in a joint project after not doing a singl…

One guy's donut shop job has an amazing perk---they get to bring home a couple dozen donuts at the end of every shift. This is a real perk for those who work at a certain donut chain, and I've experienced it first hand. The person who works there really is allowed to bring two dozen donuts home per day! The issue you quickly run into is that you probably don't know 24 people who will want to eat donuts. It's just you and your immediate family, or maybe some neighbors, versus a massive amount of…

A college student really didn't want to recommend her colleague for a job. As the co-lead of a software research lab, this college student enjoys her job, all except for one specific colleague. It's an unfortunate truth that you won't always get along with 100% of your colleagues, but just because you don't care for someone personally, doesn't mean they're not great at their work. However, the OP of this story, u/UsualAd1535, shared that her colleague constantly tries to one-up everyone around…

Best to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Oh, no, no, no.

It feels good to not be in school anymore.
