I remember having to attend mandatory meetings and hating them. About half of the people who should have been there would skip the meeting and the leader who spoke would harangue the rest of us who did attend about those who didn’t. He even told us to tell them they needed to be there. I thought, nothing doing, buddy, that’s your responsibility, not mine.
I took a required Economics class in college, the class was taught by a man who had once been a presidential advisor on economics, he knew the subject backward, forward, and upside down; but he couldn’t teach to save his life. There were 60 people in the class but an average attendance of 3. I was one of the 3 and felt sorry for the other students because as near as I could tell what the instructor was lecturing on had nothing to do with what we were reading in the text book. When the first exam came up the whole class showed up and I felt sorry for all the people who were going to miss all the questions based on the lectures. The exam was a standardized test created by the text book publishers and didn’t have a single question based on the lectures. And all the tests for the class were the same thing, apparently the professor was well known for his boring lectures and standardized tests.

I got in trouble for cutting a gym class when I was never informed I was supposed to attend. (I don’t look for my name under the letter “K”.)
