So I am taking this class, it is Introductory to Hospitality and I need it for my Degree. And as with all intro classes the students are quite interesting, and a bit wacky.
I'll start with my Professor. Firstly her hair, it is this big crazy curly Mullet thing, and she wears the mullet part in a bun (See this pic as an idea
This is a link to an example website. She is also so very loud and yells OK on a regular basis. For example she'll be writing something on the board and turn around so quickly yelling "OK ANY QUESTIONS!!!!!" The first time she did this I nearly fell right out of my chair. Don't get me wrong though, she is a great Teacher and I actually really like her.
There are also some great characters in the class.
First we will start with someone I will call "Ed" He is an older gentleman, who is not even in the Hospitality industry. Which he constantly reminds us by says he is just taking the class to see what he wants to do. He also constantly Argues with EVERYTHING and everyone in class. Especially the teacher. He argues over when the Transcontinental railroad was finished, about the civil war (And yes this has NOTHING to do with what we are learning). This past week he decided to take on the entire class. We were speaking about high end restaurants and that they are worth going to, especially if you are in the hospitality business. He proceeded to start yelling about how ridiculous we all were. And I don't mean he debates, he is just an asshole who thinks he knows everything about EVERYTHING. he sits behind me and all I want to do is turn around and smack him while yelling that he is really an idiot and if he thinks he's so smart go on Jeopardy for Fucks sake! I am sure there will be more to come about "Ed" in the coming weeks
Another student in class is a theater major, who is also taking the class to see if the hospitality industry is something she would enjoy. And boy is she Perky, and I mean perkier than a child who just woke up on Christmas morning. The teacher asks a lot of questions to the class, and if you know the answer you just say it. no need to raise your hand or act like we are in grade school. Well Theater girl hadn't answered one question until this week, when she finally knew an answer her hand shot into the air so fast I thought it was going to fly off, and in her completely High pitched voice she answered the question and after she Giggled furiously. I really think this chick is insane.
One more before I go, we have quite a few international students in the class. One of them is this guy who either doesn't pay attention or can't understand what the teacher is saying. Which would be fine if he didn't waste all of our time asking questions that the Teacher Literally JUST SAID AND WROTE IT ON THE FREAKING BOARD. I mean READ the board that is what it is for. Listen to the lecture, pay the fuck attention. Now maybe he doesn't have a handle on the English language, then do what the other international students do, buy a translator so if there is a word you don't understand type it the fuck in and stop wasting my time.
Ok that's enough for now, I am sure more will come later :)
