ARGH!

Do you ever get the feeling someone is taking advantage of your kindness? There is a guy in one of my classes that gets notes from me sometimes. He tells me he is sick or this or that but I know since he found someone to get the notes from he's been skipping class to work. It isn't an inconvenience to get the notes to him so whatever.

He missed Thursday's class and emailed me to see if I'd meet him on Friday so he could get the notes. I replied that I maybe a little late since I take a different bus. The way things worked out, I actually got to school earlier than I said I'd meet him*. I sat for a half hour waiting for him and he never showed up! I just received an email from him:
"I did not get your email until Saturday, I was at Riddell but thought you were late or weren’t coming."

LIAR! He got my email and figured it was a way of getting out of not showing up. Now he wants me to go out of my way so he can get the notes and "any hints" for the final.
I replied that I know he lied to me and left it at that.



*My bus made it downtown in time for my transfer for once. It is amazing how fast you get to school when you don't have to wait for more than 15 minutes for the next bus to come.

Sorry Pumpkin, I try to keep the language clean on this blog so I had to delete your comment.
Sorry you are going though such a rough time at work.

Ooh, that bites. I don't like people who feel that they can "whatever" their way through post-secondary education, I don't like people who leave other people waiting, and I don't like missing the transfer on buses! I'm glad you confronted the liar. I hope he doesn't get notes from anyone!

I doubt he will get the notes from anyone. He has no way of contacting them.

I didn't right out and call him a liar. I said I ended up not being late and I was waiting from 10:30-11. He replied back like he was shocked that we missed each other. We always meet in the same place so that is crap. I didn't respond. He emailed me again asking what our prof said about the final. Why would I want to do him any favours?
