so today in class we had this project due. we had to make these brochures, but the teacher wasn't grading them WE were grading each other. now there was a catch though. 4 people had to get a C, 5 people had to get a B, only 3 people could get an A.
I spent THREE DAYS working on this thing. three. days.
so we're passing around our brochures and everyone keeps looking at mine. ppl r like "omg urs is so good" + one guy called me a tryhard but I didn't even care bc this project was basically deciding whether I passed the class or not since my grades are cooked. so naturally, I was feeling pretty CONFIDENT. we start sorting them into grade piles and mine gets put in the A pile. everyone agrees it looks good. even the teacher liked it.
story ends there right? NO. ts negative nancy appears, lets call her DEBRA. debra walks over, stares at my brochure for like 30 seconds, then looks at me like I insulted her. she whispers something to another girl. the other girl then nods, then debra goes:
"hmm...honestly I dont think this has enough information."
AND THEY MOVE IT TO THE B PILE. so I was like okay? but nah It gets worse. the other girl then grabs HER OWN brochure out of the C pile and moves it into the B pile. then she goes:
"well, theres too many B's now. one of them has to become a C."
ts WITCH. when I tell you all I could do was watch in pure horror. I watched as they MODIFIED my brochure from an A to a B and then MIGRATED it all the way down to a C. A WHOLE DAM C. and their reasoning? "It didnt cover all the information." mind you, my information wasnt wrong. It was just formatted differently than most ppls. other people had different formats too, but apparently mine suddenly became a fucking big issue. and what made me even more annoyed was that debra had absolutely no reason besides that. plus she had friends in the class backing her up. meanwhile one guy very obviously had ai write his entire brochure and somehow got a B because again his friends kept defending it. I gen felt like crying. I spent DAYS on that thing just to end up with one of the lowest grades in the room.
