Well this isn't really much of a vent, just kind of blowing off steam from a stupid mistake I made today.

So I work on campus in the computer science department so I see practically all the professors at least once a day(which means no skipping if I 'have' to, argh!!

). Well I have a test today in PHP and I haven't studied. My PHP professor came in the office and asked if I was going to do good on the test and I said "I haven't really looked at it"

Then he said he was going to triple the work, all the students would suffer, if it takes 3 hours for him to prepare for each class we should study 3 hours each class etc. Then he finished off with "I have more work to do than you guys" or something along those lines.

And personally, I despise the "I have more work than you" argument. I never said I have more work than him so the argument is void if you ask me. The amount of work isn't my problem, it's the motivation to get it done. But I'm gonna take 6 hours off from work and go down to 14 hours per week instead of 20 starting next Monday though so I can get this work done. There's no chance I'll ever finish homework at night at my house.

But eh, if I lied I could have just avoided that little lecture that professor gave me I guess.
