I am glad that I am retired because today I would not last one day in the classroom. Everybody is offended by something daily and reality has been replaced by moral relativism
Years ago, in the mid-80s, as a foreign instructor at a southern college, I was assigned two summer classes nobody else wanted to teach because of the un-PC nature of the course. Even though I was an American citizen, I was still considered a foreigner in the southern culture, and as such, who else better suited to teach a bunch of foreign graduate teaching assistants who had already been hired and given assignments to teach introductory classes in the fall semester in various departments, business, economics, engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, generally science classes.
“I am glad that I am retired because today I would not last one day in the classroom. Everybody is offended by something daily and reality has been replaced by moral relativism.”
Sad. I wish we had more teachers just like him who preferred to teach about reality instead the nonsense the liberals prefer.
Sounds like what they eventually say to me at the all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet: “You done now, you go.”
My wife works with a woman from India. She doesn’t bathes; thus smells like musty jock straps.
great post..!
The biggest problem in the U. Calif system is the mass hiring of TONS of Chinese people (esp in engineering and the sciences) who really, really can’t speak Engrish.
You can’st understand maybe over half of them.
There was affirmative action problems, too. I had a Chem T.A. for o-chem at UC Santa Cruz who said “BUND” —it sounded like he was talking about European history, maybe.
He was saying “BOND”.
“Alexander Sachs with an ‘a’ not a ‘u’”
Probably a sari sight.
you mean they learry, learry can’t speak Engrish>
Care to translate since myself and the ignorant masses don't understand a word you wrote...........
I've been in the exact position
ha!
we think alike again...
The owner of an All You Can Eat buffet wanted to throw me out when I was only about 12 years old, because I was eating “too much” chicken. As if proof of my inherent superior executive skills, I merely pointed his nose at his own sign on the window “all you can eat” whilst I calmly went up to the chow line to refill my plate for perhaps the 7th or 8th time... smile smile smile...99 cents went a long way then, ha !!!)
Lived in Iran in the 60’s. My mom told me that the reason some Iranian men smelled was because they considered it a sign of masculinity.
The more they smelled the more masculine they were.
Had engineering classes (in the 80’s) with several middle eastern men in them...smelled and had cockroaches crawling on their jackets. Made quite an impression on me.
