Mates, please read...
Today will the day I am really pissed off, I was challenged by somebody about my computer literal skills! (I think all of us in the morning class today MOSTLY TO ALL of us are totally pissed off)
It happens in the morning. We are going to have a class. But I walk into the class late because I and my friends are still hanging outside for breakfast. After that, when I walked into the class, my friend tell me not to show my laptop because the people that love to 'show off' just blown his laptop out - by changing his title (as usual - when he opens his Power Point, the first thing he say obviously:" I forget to change my title again") or whatsoever...
After that, 'show off' went to borrow the laptop from the school, and yet he asks us to set it up for him when we are peeking at him. I guess that he is not so skillful on setting up the laptop as well as the projector, therefore he use an excuse that "teachers need to know everything". Other lecturers will just directly asks for help if he/she don't know how to do it. However, this 'show off' is really different - as the name, loves to show off.
The projector and laptop are all set, but he cannot make the screen at the laptop shows at the projector (I need to admit that he is poor in computing skills)... Here's the point that our class atmosphere become worse. He is just having a extremely minor display problem which can be easily fixed by me (or even some of my friends).
"Anyone can volunteer to help me to find the technician for this problem?" (What is the point you are finding the technician? Are you so sure that all of us in the class cannot solve the problem?)
10 seconds later.
"Anyone? Can help me to solve it?"
....
....
....
Then, he is ordering someone to call the technician, and he asks that anyone of us can solve the problem (by now). Therefore, I volunteered myself to help him as I cannot stand on him again on his silly actions.
When I walked up to offer the help, he asked:
"Are you sure you can do it? I don't think you are able to do it."Hey! He is asking for help yet he still put your pride into that level?! I endured it and I am going to let him know the instructions, and he say: "No, let me do it. You had do it once and I had do it many times. (Hey! I did not even touch your laptop yet, how you know I can't do it by just a peek?!) I think you are out of my league because I have tried it many times."
What the heck you think you are?! Just a PHD means you are superior on everything eh, uncle?! If talking about the course I think I might not into your league, but hey, excuse me! Most of my friends knew that I am good at computing skills, even though I am not as good as the technician as they have undergo training, but I am not! Computer skills? You are the one supposed to be out of my league, jerk!
And after that fixed out, he said the laptop still got problem. He is 'blind' that until the 'My Computer' icon is shown at desktop and all of us saw it - except him. Now he putted his pen drive on, and he say that his pendrive was infected by virus. Wow, how 'pro' of him! Even myself that cannot confirm that once you put in the drive, the pen drive will directly infected. Who knows the laptop he borrowed was using this kind of views?! He said that the views are different, not like the one he saw normally.
Then the 'show off' pissed off and started to blame and scolding at us. In fact you are the one who cannot do anything well! Some dedicated lecturers come early or will have faith with someone to make sure everything goes fine - except him. For a helper like me... I will also ignore what happened to him. Not only that not appreciate on the aid yet insulting me because I am helping him.
Laugh at him? Sure! Why not?! Because he is lame!
Kononnya sendiri Ass. Pro... mana tahu laptop pun tak tau guna, sampai laptop sendiri yang hangkang. Salah siapa kot?
Asking us to go out because we are not 'freash' whatever he calls. We are not 'freash' because we meet somebody in the likes of him. Dare or not, if he is asking for the survey, I doubt who will agree with a 8am class. Oh... Forget it. He is not only 'show off' but also 'syok sendiri'.
The points I and my friends saying him so:
1. He asks us:" Do you want to cancel the lecture today?" 90% of us want to cancel it. However, he answered, "But I want to have the lecture by today."
What is the point you are asking then?2. "...... I am a successful person because I have overcome such problem. If we got problems in facilities, we should go to complain and let them improve. That's why I am successful."
He are successful... perhaps in the course , publishing books. But you are extremely poor in computer and also the social skills. Said that he wants to decrease the gap between the lecturer and the student, in fact he is increasing the gap. He should consider yourself as a failure. Perhaps he is good at academic, but it is clearly that he is also a person that loves to boasting.
3. Course Outlines, 50% of the reference is his book. In fact if you look closely, you will found that the book he wants to refer got not even a hitch with the course he is teaching. Talking nonsense and showing off is great, this is the thing we should reckon of.
4. "I got 3 reasons I need to cancel my class today.
i. The projector is working, laptop is working but the laptop is infected by virus. I don't want my pen drive later also infected by virus because I need to throw my pen drive later. Why? When my pen drive infected by virus, I need to delete all of the things inside the pen drive include the setting inside the pen drive.
ii. I am wearing wrong spectacles so that I cannot see clearly. I am also wasting my time here.
iii. This is the main reason. You all are not fresh today. So I cancel this class. But use the free time and go to the library and find the books that is in the outline."
Lame, lame, lame! He need to delete or throw his pen drive because of virus? Ridiculous! He don't even know the term 'format pen drive' but talking nonsense. This clearly shows out his stupidity... Then, does wrong spectacles got to do with lecture? Claimed that he is wasting his time. His time is precious, so it means that our time is not precious. Main reason? We all are not fresh because of 'show off-er'. Nobody loves to wake up early and suffer in the first lecture. Find the books? Most of them are the non-related books from him and wanted us to put into our assignment, huh...
Clearly that we will going to hate this fella for the rest of the years. We laughs at him because he such a loser and lamer that always acclaim himself is a successful person... In fact, he is not. Perhaps in academic only?
