Here is yet another example of how teachers are heroes!

This employee thought she was pulling off some malicious compliance, but in the end, she just made things worse for herself.

First impressions really do matter! These people told r/askreddit about the people who they knew they wouldn't get along with from the first minute of conversation, and it was quite eye opening. People tend to tell you who they are — you just have to listen. A few teachers took to the comments to express their frustration with parents who love to tell these teachers how much their kids hate reading. In some cases, they bragged that their kid is illiterate ! The teachers certainly didn't like th…

Let's be real here: being late is annoying, but being unnecessarily strict is more annoying.

School testing is an important part of a student's year, and these tests have to be administered with exact time measurements. This teacher shared their experience with this on r/MaliciousCompliance – they got to talk to their boss in a way that most people only dream of! As u/Djorgal shared, they work part time as a math teacher in France. Since they only work part-time, they kept telling their principal that they wouldn't be able to cover the entirety of the student's upcoming tests. With the…

Bad landlords, careless delivery drivers, and wrong labels on food — these are just a smattering of random things that got on people's last nerve this week. R/Mildlyinfuriating is constantly updated with irritations big and small, submitted by folks around the world. There are a few interesting trends this week. For one, several people have posted receipts with mysterious new charges. One had an ‘economic recovery fee,' which is bold way of begging for coins, I suppose. On a slightly larger sca…

This teacher was on quite the power trip!

If this isn't evidence of a desperate education system, I don't know what is!

Sometimes people need a little bit of monetary consequence to let them know that their actions have been bad; it's the only stimulus that a lot of entitled, narcissistic, or power-tripping people will respond to. And, while I can't agree with the notion that a teacher should normally have to pay for punishing their student's poor behavior, in this instance, it's clear that this teacher was just abusing their power and really mistreating and harassing this poor student. It's incredibly dishearte…

Every so often, you come across an authority figure who just wants to see you fail.

We love family dysfunction, but this one has truly sparked some debate.

There's nothing like a success story about rebelling against authority.

Everyone's a critic, including the very teachers who are supposed to guide students along their path to success. When senior art critic Jerry Saltz asked artists to dish on their worst art advice from teachers, he got some incredible responses. He posed the question in a tweet, asking, "Artists: Did you ever have a bad art-school critique that really set you back, knocked you off your pins? What was it? Keep it short; don't exaggerate. Often, it can be the least thing. Have you ever made a “rev…

There are times in our lives when we face the challenge of someone who holds authority over us. This challenge may not be totally fair — or even sensical — but it necessitates a response all the same. We then have a choice at that point, do we rise to the challenge? Or find another path? This student decided to rise to their professor's challenge when they were told that their paper wasn't long enough, despite being within the required length range. When the time for the next paper rolled aroun…

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

This teacher clearly has a chip on their shoulder.
