Advisors are definitely the worst people I ever met in academia. Their entire job is to help you, and yet I had one that set me back more than any other person has my entire life. I was late in graduating, I missed out on a second degree which I didn’t know. I was even close to, nice straight up had classes that I didn’t even need. All while claiming that they help and care for their people
Lmao

I never understood their incompetence, like across the board. How hard is it to know what class counts to a degree? And if they fuck it up, there are no repercussions and the student is put behind.

Sounds like you just had a shit advisor tbh. My advisor had suggested taking a few different classes to achieve a second degree, as well as advocating for me for some special exceptions for something, and just always reaching out a few times each term with specific things to discuss on my progress and future plans.

What’s going on with the Es in the first line?

“Thanks in advance” has changed meaning.
It used to mean: “I appreciate your effort into this, no reply needed”. It now means :“Fuck you if you don’t do this, and I expect this done without complaint.”

I thought for years that was a badly photoshopped image of Joe Biden.
