I've disagreed each time, so going back won't do any good. I still disagree.

You formed a sweeping generalization of every school administrators based on your limited personal experience and the select few with bad experience.
You blame school administrators for being ***** because of sweeping generalization of all students based on the select few bad students.
So either you are a hypocrite or a cunt.
I qualified my statements and never said all of them. Nice try, though. Maybe a little more attention and you'd get it right.![]()
Here's the difference: I don't act any differently toward them, nor does my view affect them in any way.
Their behavior effects me and others because they deal with myself and others. That's wherein my opinion comes from. Mine is just a reaction to their action.
I can't believe this is being turned on me. You guys do realize that plenty of other people in this thread voiced the same kind of displeasure and experiences, right?
Here's the bottom line: Based on my unbiased past experience with them, I've encountered plenty of school officials who didn't act with much fairness. Even still, I've even treated such people with respect due to their positions, because it is the decent thing to do. In dealing with these people, they've re-enforced the stereotype of the "grumpy, unapproachable administrator who you don't want to catch on the wrong day". Call me jaded, maybe I am. I only know of my own experience. Many would agree with me though. Maybe you were blessed with stellar school admins all your life. They exist. I just haven't met very many myself. And that's my stance.
First off, I like your use of semi colons, a rarity these days. Nice.
Secondly, if I came across as a hypocrite, the reason why I'm disagreeing is that I don't believe I am being one in the context of the situation, so if that's been gathered from my stance, then I haven't accurately or articulately described it then.
We're not saying you're a hypocrite because of the way you act towards them. We're saying you're being a hypocrite because you don't like the way administrators treat most students the same (as jerks), even though not all students are jerks. But at the same time, you're calling most administrators jerks, even though not all administrators are jerks.Here's the difference: I don't act any differently toward them, nor does my view affect them in any way.

Admit you're a hypocrite for doing the exact same thing you complain those people are doing? Admit you know a VERY small percentage of school administrators and main office workers, and thus are speaking ignorantly about them?I see what you are saying, and if you really think it makes me a hypocrite, then fine, what can I do?
I thought the administrators at my school were dicks for making us purchase our uniform shirts directly from the school. Something about equality and so lower class students won't feel poor or some crap. If only they knew the amount of shirts I could buy at a thrift store or Walmart with the $20 I had to pay for one lousy polo shirt with the school's name on it. I never felt ashamed for being poor until then.
I'm not going to take anything I said back, because it's still how I feel about them.
I understand what you are saying, but there's a reason behind having students buy from school. $20 seems a little steep though, would I be right in assuming they had a school logo on them?
