the only exception to this is when it’s literally time to go and the professor is still yapping

Somehow it’s even worse when they do this to a TA… like cmon guys they’re literally just other students getting paid minimum wage the least we can do is stay seated

No because I always feel so bad for the professor. I notice people do it when we still have five minutes of class left too :(

If the class gets out at 3:00, I am only obligated to sit here until that time. You speaking past that is now disrespectful to my time.

I have a few classes that are 20 min apart and far in distance so unfortunately sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to make it on time 😭

Anonymous 44w

yeah it’s irritating and i can’t pay as good attention :(

Anonymous 44w

YESSSSSSSSS. i don’t pack up and keep attentively listening. 1. it’s respectful. 2. there is shit you might miss.

Anonymous 44w

I get it if you have somewhere to be but like do it quietly

Anonymous 44w

only do this when they go over the class time because i usually have classes back to back so i cant sit there an extra 5 minutes or ill be late. definitely annoying when people start to pack up before the time tho

My professor would always wait until the last 5 minutes to tell us the assignments so that anyone who was too busy packing wouldnt hear it and then fail the class for missed assignments simply bc they were rude.

Fr it’s so disrespectful and makes me sad 😭

Anonymous 44w

Nah professors waste students time all the time showing up late to class or just reading from a slideshow that’s already posted on the class page and not even teaching so yeah I’m tryna get on with my day especially if I got another class soon respect goes both ways🤷‍♂️

Real I feel so bad especially when there is time left

Anonymous 44w

I hate this but I had to do it today bc the professor wouldn’t stop yapping and it was 5 mins after AND I had somewhere to be soon

😌

Anonymous 44w

yeah it’s really rude i agree

Anonymous 44w

it makes me feel so sad for the teacher, like they’re just tryna talk and now they have to yell over all the students packing bags

Anonymous 44w

agreed if its in the middle of class but i have a class w a 10 min break between them and its a 6 min walk, like peace and love but the second the lecture ends im out🩷

Anonymous 44w

it honestly depends for me. sometimes i only have 10-15 minutes in between classes and want to be ready to go the second the professor is done

Anonymous 42w

I once witnessed half my math class LEAVE while the prof was still finishing up instructions for homework. I felt SO bad and he looked beyond disappointed.

Anonymous 44w

I agree, but one of my classes ends 15 mins after I'm supposed to be at another class (not for school) so I gotta skidattle out of that one

Anonymous 44w

Idgaf, I pay to be there I can leave when I want

Anonymous 44w

I do this when the class time is supposed to be over because it’s a very far commute and I usually have somewhere else to be

Anonymous 44w

If you had a class far away or needed to srep out earlier than normal, you are courteous and let the professor know before the class and sit close to the door so as to be respectful. It’s really not that difficult and people who refuse to do that are just lazy and selfish.

Anonymous 44w

not everything is in the syllabus lol. info like if theyre changing rooms or exam dates/information or assignment due dates are important info a lot of professors talk about last minute so if they go over people are gonna miss it

Anonymous 44w

dawg it is not that serious lol its genuinely annoying when people pack up loud af when the class is still going and if you take offense to that maybe just learn to pack a lil quieter before you go. and if class is over literally everyone agrees here that its valid to leave and the professors are the annoying ones for not respecting our time

no one cares if one person packs up early. its when EVERYONE joins in and is louder than the prof can talk (again when class time is still going!) stop taking everything so personal on an anonymous app

It's also different if you have a cane. There should be certain accomodations you can get and let the both professors know, tell one that you have to leave as soon as possible and tell the other that you might be a little late. There are rules in place to establish that this can't be used against you

It’s disrespectful that you can’t find the importance of them using their free time at that point to remind you of whatever the fuck you need to know for the next week. Patience isn’t valued these days. You don’t need to but it shows mad lack of discipline to not wait a minute.

Anonymous 44w

Why’d you set your schedule up like that? Kind of lacking responsibility eh?

Anonymous 44w

In the work force it’s about being on time and staying on task. If you can’t do that for one extra minute of a teachers time then you probably don’t have the patience for the business world.

You aren’t obligated to be there at all

If you sign up for a class then don’t go, that’s on you. You already paid for it. But it’s a courtesy that you only use the time that is scheduled for it. We have lives, jobs, other classes that don’t revolve around “oh your TA is a fucking yapper, you’re free to be late!” As an excuse

I love how I still make the point that you set your schedule up like shit but somehow I’m wrong because I’m being disciplined. You don’t get a pass cause you have somewhere to be that’s just life.

Anonymous 44w

It’s more the fact that I have an issue who lack the little bit of patience. Like they’re a teacher taking their time, I know they’re getting paid but quite frankly no one likes getting talked over or ignored. So yeah I’m accusatory but you’re also just being unaccountable for your actions. I get I’m being harsh but it’s the truth. It angers me that this many people feel like they deserve a free pass for anything when they do shit to themselves.

It’s like no different than the fact that people can’t go a full class with touching their phone. It’s that type of discipline that people lack which pisses me off. You really are that obsessed or you’re really that impatient.

Anonymous 44w

Like simply put, you don’t get to leave work early in the workforce because you have somewhere to be. Unless you think you’re that important that you get a pass and can leave whenever
