Question: I am a university student. There is still one module, which I have opted for pass/fail, i.e. I don’t need to score well in it. I didn’t hand in one of the assignments and the lecturer, in one of his emails to us, mentioned that he was waiting for mine. I feel outraged. Why did it have to shame me like this? I am an adult and it is my problem if I did not hand in my work. He’s a boomer and so unprofessional.
Answer:
Indeed, you are right.
Your lecturer shouldn’t have cared about you. By not handing in, you are making his life easier, he doesn’t get any penalty when students don’t hand in work and don’t have to suffer from your whines nor would your friends need to hear you rant. Such a bad decision on his part.
You are right again. You are an adult.
In real world, it will just affect your reputation when you are sloppy in your work. It’s your decision to want to fail in life.
Of course, in the real world, people are less forgiving- you could get reprimanded in person in front of your colleagues and lose your job. But you are an adult. Who cares about others? It’s what you want.
I don’t know the point of ranting this to me; I assume you just need people to agree with you, so that’s exactly what I am doing.
You are right. Keep being irresponsible.

For my readers, who are usually teenagers, he is right.
It is your life.
You decide if you want to be successful in life.
You are not always so lucky to have people who want you to succeed egging you on.
You decide your fate. You can decide if you are someone who just ignores work and be super sensitive or someone who has a steadfast work ethic.
The onus is on you. #thurswithwei #boomermemes from Study Room https://ift.tt/2PQX35M
