Diagnosis: Graduate School
Symptoms include poor eyesight from reading thousands of pages a week, carpal tunnel from writing meaningless papers no one will read, and insanity from teaching college freshman how to write
WHEN SOMEONE ACCIDENTALLY SPITS ON ME WHILE THEY’RE SPEAKING
AFTER THE THIRD DAY OF MY STUDENTS NOT BRINGING THEIR BOOKS TO CLASS
WHEN PEOPLE GET IRRITATED THAT I FORGET THINGS
Whenever I bring up a relevant personal story during lecture
My students,
When I told my students I would have their slides up within 24 hours or early the morning before class
When undergrads skip class, don’t pass, and then have the nerve to write negative evaluations.
THE OFFICE. IT’S OVER. AND IT WAS PERFECT.
WHEN SOMEONE MADE FUN OF ME FOR CRYING ABOUT THE OFFICE ENDING
REALIZING THAT THE OFFICE ENDED THE SAME YEAR I FINISHED GRADUATE SCHOOL
