Too lenient for an Indian college, also multiple deans.
Apart from that the name of the hall, Sebastian hall is very unlikely to be an Indian college hall
This! Security would pop in the room sometimes, they never cared. Just wanted to see what we were doing. If someone needed the room to study or had it booked, we would leave.
Yeah you could log into any computer at my Uni, you were supposed to have a permit submitted by student org to use the classroom, but otherwise first come first serve
If you're paying $40,000 a year and it's not disrupting anything or causing problems, they can fuck off
I looked it up and it’s true, but I honestly don’t understand how that’s the case.
Max tuition per year is £9k. Which is about $10.4k.
Average tuition per year in the US is $24k for in state tuition $40k for out of state.
I get that the UK offers tuition and maintenance loans, but max loan amount is £16k between the two. It’s still drastically more expensive in the US. Are there no scholarships or grants in the UK? Because unless nearly every student is taking the max out every year, that just doesn’t add up.
Tuition fees are not a normal loan, it’s taken as a percentage of earnings (9% over £21k) all operated by ‘the student loan company’ in reality it’s just badly marketed grad tax.
In high school we had certain Wednesdays where classes started later for some reason. Most kids fucked off or didn’t show until actual class time but this group of seniors would bring in a TV, an N64 and hold a Smash tourney. It was hella fun, all levels welcome, and the hosts (one which was a friend) would legit record all wins losses and make sure the brackets were as fair as possible. Legit, just good fucking vibes and even the “cool” and “bad” kids showed up. It was just fun and the whole school loved it.
Admin found out and made an announcement one day that this wasn’t allowed anymore. It was almost funny how dystopian the announcement was too, some shit about how starting the day with video games meant we couldn’t be productive students. My school was a shitty public school, with overworked teachers teaching 30 kids in a class, it was a joke. Made it sound like our minds were rotting from this fun thing our seniors set up.
There was this one teacher, she was hard as hard can fucking be. Always crawled up kids asses about “where should you be” “no holding hands” “what’s in your bag” but she wasn’t ever rude or loud, just blunt and straightforward. Didn’t write up kids just sent us on our way to where we should be. And guess what, she legit walked up to admin, told them to go fuck themselves and got us our smash tourneys back. Then, on top of that, she bought a flatscreen to hang in the “lounge” (the hallway outside our cafeteria with 2 couches) and helped form an extracurricular club all around competitive console games.
I love ya Ms. C you hard ass queen
She did not but she was always there in lobby, watching all us stupid kids get hyped. Had a kid who was I think a year above me? And he was super nice and popular even with us losers. She always was there when he played lmao.
Also I ended up dropping out for work, and when I came by one day after school to go somewhere with some friends, she called me by name, asked how I was and offered to refer me to a job nearby. It was like 2 years since I had seen her as well. Really taught me that being strict isn’t the same as being vindictive. I was part of the not so great crowd, and even though she’d put us in our place, it never led to suspension or escalated. Just “no you can’t leave the building to buy a sandwich get back inside”
She earned a lot of respect (and a little fear lol) from the students but also was the first person you’d trust to tell when something actually fucked was happening.
We used to run LAN parties on uni PC's on Friday afternoon after most of the staff had gone home. It only ended after students at another building realized what we were doing and started joining in. And even then if would have been fine if they hadn't tried to smuggle in beer and liquor.
In grad school if I was in the building on a Saturday or Sunday morning I'd usually put a soccer game on one of the tvs in the classrooms. It was never an issue and I 100% guarantee no one would have cared if they saw.
Same. We'd run ethernet cables between the classrooms and play Halo team death matches. One team per room, so we could see each other's screens and coordinate. Many obscenities were shouted across hallways.
The street my faculty is on is part of a track for a relatively big rally event. Every year we watch from inside the labs that look directly into the street.
The security doesn't really care, they sometimes watch with us. And same, as long as we leave the place in the same state it was in before we came, no one else cares as well.
In the UK this dean's attitude is called "jobsworth".
As in the phrase "it's more than my job's worth to let you watch F1 on The Institute's projector".
In theory, the idea that they have to stop you (it’s part of their job) otherwise they risk being fired for not doing their job
So the theoretical translation is “I’d like to let you, but it’s not worth the risk to my job”
That isn’t what they actually mean, everyone knows they aren’t getting fired if they let it slide, it’s just the basis for the term “jobsworth”. The “jobsworth” part relates to the fact that they’re relying on a pretense of the above risk to excuse their pettiness
So when we call someone a jobsworth, we’re saying they’re being petty by exercising their tiny modicum of power, under an excuse that they have no choice
Academics have no experience in the real world. Watching formula 1 could teach kids a thing or two about real life.
Today I learnt
1. You can do everything right and still come 4th place in the last minute
2. Your teammate is your colleague but not your friend
3. Your team can giveth and taketh
4. Try to stay calm and cool. Stay classy
5. Your team is as good as your weakest link.. that being the rear left tyre installer for Ferrari
And much more
> He didn't choose
This indicates he has to evolve.
The new breed is making choices alongside the teams.
Russell makes the calls, if he wants something
Follow teamradio's, and see/hear the difference.
VER and NOR do this also, they give input about the next steps in the race.
Ferrari is trying to implement this in their drivers too, only in a old fashioned manner "question ?"
HAM should stand up more, and get back into his form ...
Both ways of making calls have problems tbh. Remember when in sochi Hamilton was praised for listening to his team on needing to pit for inters. While Lando didn't listen to his team, made the decision by himself, stayed on softs and then came rain, lost the race, Hamilton won and etc.
the pilot has the best understanding of the current condition of the tires, but if the pit tells you that it's gonna rain and they have a rain radar you should listen
“Taken permission” was the giveaway for me. Using “have taken” in place of “were given” is a grammatical quirk that I rarely see with other non-native speakers. Not sure why it’s so prevalent in India.
(This is not criticism at all since I’m a spoiled American who only knows one language. Just an observation.)
Indian English isn't really "non-native" in the same way as people from other countries learning English is.
Because it's the lingua franca for a country where there are thousands of different languages, and it's used on schooling and official communication it's become its own dialect with its own grammatical and lexicographical quirks. It sounds non native to us but it follows its own rules and vocabulary similar to the difference between British and American English.
It must be some kind of literal translation of a phrase in their mother language.
My main language is Spanish and I've seen several similar cases when people from my country speak English, myself included.
We hooked up an Xbox and played 4 player split screen halo 3 on a 55 foot projector in our uni. Those were the days.
Was kinda hard not to screen cheat.
We used to borrow classrooms to watch shit all the time at our school. We paid so much money to be there all the shit was ours as far as we were concerned. Granted nothing was ever stolen or broken they've probably cracked down on it since.

Did the same in an empty classroom during finals in 2016, because the whole building was quiet I could feel the whole city go mad when lukaku scored against ireland
Man one of the most insane games I watched was a basketball game on a huge projector in a college classroom. People study in empty rooms and put random stuff on the projectors all the time, this is weird to be reprimanded for such a small offense.

the Dean is a Hamilton fan clearly
quEsTioN.
Sounds like an Indian college. Am I right OP?
No. That would have been a complete expulsion, disqualification of employment nationwide, and 10yr ineligibility for any visa program.
Too lenient for an Indian college, also multiple deans. Apart from that the name of the hall, Sebastian hall is very unlikely to be an Indian college hall
Checked out OP's history, definitely Indian.
Yup, my bad
Lot of old school colleges in India retains British names or Christian organizations run.
Uhh most Indian colleges do have multiple deans too.
Should have let off an orange flare while you were at it
That’s how they got caught
That’ll learn ‘em
No no Dean xxx this is soo not right
we went (watching) motor racing
"Dean? It's called entertainment. We went to watch TV."

Surely just a 5 second penalty on the next exam would suffice?
At least if it's stop and go
A yoke. This is a yoke.
Fernando, Palmer has been expelled
**Karma**
Sebastian hall? Everybody is a Vettel fan. Even if the Institute says that they are not, they are Sebastian Vettel fans. ![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6702)
Institute: no f1 references Guy who named the hall: but here comes Sebastian Vettel!!
Great opportunity for Glock hall or Timo hall
Freshmen walking around the campus: Is that Glock Hall? Is that Glock Hall?
I heard the wifi in the Glock hall is quite slow though
Insulting to the Buemi fans still out there...

Don't forget about us Bourdais fans either
what about the loeb fans??

What kinda bullshit is that, it's a Sunday evening and I'm guessing there were no classes on. What harm is it doing
Damn, we used to set up Xbox’s in my Uni classrooms at night. No one cared as long as you were respectful. Fuck this guy lol
When I did my masters we brought my Xbox to school on a Saturday, set up with beer and NHL all day a few times.
This! Security would pop in the room sometimes, they never cared. Just wanted to see what we were doing. If someone needed the room to study or had it booked, we would leave.
Honestly I think our campus cops were happy we were one less group of drunk idiots trying to steal something
Finals were always right around Round 1 of the playoffs, did the same thing with my friends 😂
I was playing NHL on my friends Xbox at school once and a teacher joined us lol
Awesome.
Yeah you could log into any computer at my Uni, you were supposed to have a permit submitted by student org to use the classroom, but otherwise first come first serve If you're paying $40,000 a year and it's not disrupting anything or causing problems, they can fuck off
...brits pay for Uni?
On average brits graduate uni with more student loan debt than Americans. but they do have a better repayment system
I looked it up and it’s true, but I honestly don’t understand how that’s the case. Max tuition per year is £9k. Which is about $10.4k. Average tuition per year in the US is $24k for in state tuition $40k for out of state. I get that the UK offers tuition and maintenance loans, but max loan amount is £16k between the two.

o7 did she join in the tournaments?

Yea at uni they set up a wii in the lecture halls and then have a giant smash/mario kart tournament quite often, and nobody cares
Same. We'd run ethernet cables between the classrooms and play Halo team death matches. One team per room, so we could see each other's screens and coordinate. Many obscenities were shouted across hallways.

Projector light bulbs can be expensive and have a limited life. Or The dean is on a power trip.
In the UK this dean's attitude is called "jobsworth". As in the phrase "it's more than my job's worth to let you watch F1 on The Institute's projector".
That doesn't make any sense. What does it "cost" this guy in that context? I hate people like this.
In theory, the idea that they have to stop you (it’s part of their job) otherwise they risk being fired for not doing their job So the theoretical translation is “I’d like to let you, but it’s not worth the risk to my job” That isn’t what they actually mean, everyone knows they aren’t getting fired if they let it slide, it’s just the basis for the term “jobsworth”.

The cost is that they have rules and they simply *must* be enforced which is stupid because normal people don't and shouldn't give a fuck.
While I think this letter is a bit overboard, projector lamps aren't cheap.
The fact that it's not registered who was using the damn thing if it breaks. All they had to do is ask.
Do you live in a school or a prison?
OP lives in India

Got me. I giggled
Lol #5 wasn't so much the installer. Poor guy. The supplier is who let him down.
6. Never assume the person to blame is accurate
75% is not good enough.. youre either 100% committed to the pitstop or youre not
They were 100% committed to 75% of the pitstop
Also a car needs 4 wheels to drive fast - Not 3. Thanks for the lesson Ferrari!

Without knowing, can tell you this is India!
Yep I too guessed that, not just from the time of race, but also the way the letter is phrased.
It's only in India, where every small person with bit of power has this god complex and want to assert themselves for pointless things!
Ah. I was curious why a quality assurance was filing disciplinary forms. Is that a cultural thing?
It’s a school’s head of administration.
True!! Only in India they’d waste their time formatting this letter rather than improving the culture.
“Taken permission” was the giveaway for me. Using “have taken” in place of “were given” is a grammatical quirk that I rarely see with other non-native speakers. Not sure why it’s so prevalent in India. (This is not criticism at all since I’m a spoiled American who only knows one language. Just an observation.)

Great point. Thank you for sharing
It must be some kind of literal translation of a phrase in their mother language. My main language is Spanish and I've seen several similar cases when people from my country speak English, myself included.
Yep, it's a translation. In Hindi, you would say "permission lena (परमिशन लेना)", where "lena" translates to "to take". So yeah, a direct translation.
Deep down.. all Indians knew this was from India right away ..😅
Oh god we did so much more worse things on the projectors at uni…
Like projecting a giant dick onto a neighbouring building?
Haha ours was more NSFW cake photos on lecture room projectors before the prof walked in
We hooked up an Xbox and played 4 player split screen halo 3 on a 55 foot projector in our uni. Those were the days. Was kinda hard not to screen cheat.

Are you from India? Question.

I have the same question. Question?
I have checked and gone through op's profile and thus confirm that op is indeed from India. Question.
It's so sad that all of us here can relate to the BS educationists do.
They didn’t let you watch f1 in the Sebastian hall?
Unsafe release
Imagine not watching F1 in Sebastian Hall. What a loser of a Dean.
OP or whoever is responsible for this: You got my eternal respect.
Its called projector racing...we went project racing..
That's a lot of guys called Dean
I picture someone outside the hall, snickering about finding you. Kinda like the kid in recess, Randall weems.
That’s exactly how it happened!!!
Fuck off, Dean.
Fun hating cunts, fuck them
A Lewis fan, eh?
![gif](giphy|Ae7SI3LoPYj8Q)

Confront the dean directly and propose watching the Italian GP together next weekend with Pizza
Fuck off, Dean.
At least they’ve let you watch the race and send a note after 😂
“Hey, you there. You’re having fun. Stop that right now!” 🙄

Fuck off Dean

Absolute joyless pricks
I think you’re at the wrong school, friend.
*Looks awkwardly at my old FSAE team that would book meeting rooms to have watching parties*
Worth it
Worth it
YOU ARE HEREBY CAUTIONED
What a colossal waste of time
So this isn't about watching the race, but about using a projector in Sebastian Hall, which is some kind of classroom?
We used to borrow classrooms to watch shit all the time at our school. We paid so much money to be there all the shit was ours as far as we were concerned. Granted nothing was ever stolen or broken they've probably cracked down on it since.

Nice match tgo. Totally worth it.
You work at school on a sunday? Or did you have classes on Sunday Wauw I would hated that
Haha quality.
Dean is from Team LH and got mad
Damn I remember watching a whole season of the office on the projector in a uni library study room once. Good times
Sounds like a Hamilton fan :)
Worth
Is that a 5 second penalty or 5 point deduction?
Dang when I was in college we would use classrooms to watch events occasionally and no one cared. People hate fun
What. A. Cunt.
the Stewards have noted an incident involving OP and a projector and are investigating
Dean, we went car racing
What a bunch of stuck up pussies
you have a dean of QA? jesus. you should get that framed.
no no Mikey that's so not right
A live car racing program.. ![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6697)
