Ok.... that bugger who handed in his test paper wrongly has
finally replied to me. He said (I quote):
'Dear Sir: I belong to group xxx, FYI.'
I don't think he even realized that using the term 'FYI' in this
context is downright rude since it has a tendency towards sarcasm.
The message I got was:
'Dear Sir: I belong to group xxx. Don't you even know that?
Sheesh.
'
So in my reply I b*tchslapped the guy on several counts: (a) for
not bothering to check his class group and venue, (b) for not
bothering to check that he had handed in his test paper correctly,
(c) for being rude to me, intentionally or not, (d) for taking such
a bloody long time to reply to me, and (e) for making me have to go
through the trouble of finding his own tutor to pass the paper to
him.
How do you intend to penalise him, if you are allowed to do
that?
