Email to my class

I always shut and lock the door at 9:30 sharp when my media class starts. All of the late arrivals have to wait outside until I let them in, which is usually accompanied with some acerbic comment about getting to class on time, being responsible, etc.

Today, I was two minutes late to class because I was upstairs gabbing. One of those little turds had shut and locked the door on me, which was probably the ballsiest, funniest thing a student has ever done. The whole class was laughing at me and refused to tell me who did it. I would have shaken his/her hand for doing it, but there seemed to be a pact not to tell.

So I sent an email out to all of them with the enticement of extra credit for snitching. We'll see if I get any information. Here's the message:

Class,

I'm offering a reward of five extra credit points for information leading to the identification of the student who shut the door on me this morning. Any email or other correspondence will be kept in the strictest confidence. Whoever did it won't be punished, but probably will be publicly ridiculed at my convenience.

I know there has to be a rat or two among you who would be willing to sell out a classmate to help yourself. Remember, there's no honor among thieves.

Have a great weekend.

Peace,
jc

That's awesome! Not to top my graduate price theory professor who threw chalk and erasers at people who asked stupid questions or gave stupid answers.
