When you as a lecturer commit yourself to conducting a distance learning course, of which much of the materials and study aids would be posted online, you have to factor in the times when things are going to screw up and prepare yourself for questions from students that are actually DOING THEIR WORK and attempting to look at the materials you've posted up.
You do not write curt e-mails along to the lines of "I strongly advise you to contact the helpdesk as you are obviously having problems because lecturers certainly cannot be troubleshooting."
Well I'm sorry it was so difficult for you to attach one bloody powerpoint and click send, so that I would have the lecture notes for Thursday's class. Boy am I tempted to write a scathing e-mail to put her in her place. I pay my fees, I pepper my e-mails with plenty of Ps and Qs, I show respect to people of authority, so don't come and send a curt e-mail implying I was troubling you! More so because you are an EDUCATOR! Students will constantly ask questions and ask for help!
Having said that, she will be grading my papers, so I have to bite my tongue.
The only comforting fact, she's a CHEMISTRY major, like, how much more of a freak can you be.
Go back to memorizing the Periodic table. BITCH.
Urgh

education is very deceiving. educators lie, education businessmen cheat, students plagiarise.
bluff. all bluff. nothing is real.

Nothing is real except the pain and melting skin that comes from the searing heat off a homebrewed explosive.
That's when McNamara/Troy comes in to save the day in the most dysfunctional manner, operating to the groovy tunes of Isaac Hayes.
