For one of my classes, rather than having a final we havea 7-10 page paper. It was supposed to be due on Friday, but she said she was going to be generous with the deadline, and that if we needed more time that was fine. She said the reason it was early was so that we could get it done and not worry about it.
Well, I'm going home tomorrow and was going to turn it in before we left. I get an e-mail tonight, and 8PM (but I didn't check it until 9:30) saying that the homework is due at midnight. Which, excuse my language, is complete bullshit. You can't tell someone that they need to turn in a homework assignment within four hours. What if I was home already, and I worked tonight? I would't have gotten home until 11, and probably would have just read a bit before bed and then gone to sleep. People have lives, they can't be expected live on their computers like that. And, on top of that, she told us we could have more time if we needed it, and never gave us a deadline of "it has to be done at such and such a time or else," or I would have had it done.
So now I'm overtired (yay for getting 4 hours of sleep last night) and panicing because my teacher is lame. I extremely dislike her, but nothing I can do about that now.
