I didn't think there was such thing as "too evil" when it comes to test questions.

I mean, this class already has a 50% fail rate, historically.

We just took a test as a class and we all got 97s except one person who disagreed on one question and she got a 99

So part of my TA job is picking exam questions from the textbook test bank. I might be too evil for this job.

What does TA stand for? All I can think of is Territorial Army. :p

Yup.

I felt like a Jedi yesterday... I caught a kid on facebook in class. I was sitting several rows behind him, he had his laptop out, and he's normally very studious (except that one day he fell asleep), but the ONE TIME he can't resist the urge to check facebook, I seemingly appeared from nowhere in front of him and told him sternly to shut the computer and put it away and don't bring it back (as stated in the class rules). I fade back to my seat, looking around to see if anyone else wants some wrath. I'm sitting there, vaguely proud of myself, and see Mr. Facebook's friend ask him what happened (it was THAT fast) :D and the offender replies (with a sheepish, rather contrite nervous smile) "I was on facebook." I actually laughed maniacally to myself.

I thought that was the point of bringing a laptop to class....that's why I bring mine! Listening to evil Dr. Soandso drivel on about APN practice when she hasn't touched a patient in 40 years...gimme a break!

Yes, but these are undergrads. They have no freedom.

No. I know where there is a crematorium. And my car has a large trunk.

Just ran off their next exams... environmentalists will die: (2 test forms X 120 tests per form X 4 pages-front and back-per test) + 16 pages of the two originals + 8 pages for the sample copies to proofread = 984 pieces of paper.

The Amazon weeps for this class.

I miss paper tests. This newfangled computerized testing is for the birds. :(

I would love it. I am an insanely good at monitoring people's computer screens.

I'm thinking of going to university... I've been out of work for 9 months already, so I can't think of any worse ideas than getting horribly in debt right now! :p

Not 100% sure what I'd do, mind you. Maybe marketing or something, but I've been told it's horrendously boring.

You could do some web design or programming. My friend just graduated and has had several job offers.

Whoa, whoa! Sticks has been given access to a gun. Pod is teaching psychology. My cynical ass is teaching government. What's next? Furday being head of security at a brothel? Chicken becoming a motivational speaker? JM becoming an abstinence-only educator?

I should clarify that I don't mean we're necessarily the blind leading the blind, but we're leading the blind into a closed door and laughing our asses off about it.

Well, I am teaching the 8-9 year old Sunday School class. I'm sure there's a lesson about that somewhere in my manual. :p
