Putting legs up on the table during lectures/presentation
-
How do you feel abt this? And if it happens in the classroom? And if the person guilty of doing this is sitting right at the front row, and is just a few feet away from the professor/other students making presentation?
I feel really disgusted. Think it is a very rude behavior. Dunno why the professor and other students in the class never complain

And i tot putting up legs on chairs or tables is a singaporean behaviour, kekekeke

Err...I know if this is done in a classroom back home, the teacher would have definitely said something...maybe a warning and if the student continues to put the legs on the table, he/she would definitely be asked to leave the classroom...but at least there won't be this kinda disrespectful behavior in the class.Originally posted by laurence82:And i tot putting up legs on chairs or tables is a singaporean behaviour, kekekeke
Sometimes you really wonder if too much freedom is a good or bad thing... -
its very bad manners. that person ought to be scolded. On the other hand, the lecturer is intentionally giving the idea that this person can get away with this attitude and hopefully get bashed in life by my terror individuals if he does it outside or in front of more fierce lecturers.
Nowadays, most just ignore and let that idiot get wack by someone more terror.
and also let others see what is kind of person will show disrespect bad attitude.
in Thai, if sit with one leg up and shaking, he gets scolded really bad and if not satisfy , he gets wack. -
hei hei..its the USA

I agree...he should be reprimanded in some way or another. It is a very disgraceful sight to have two hairy legs being stretched out on a table. Esp when there are people talking just a few feet away from him...Originally posted by AF2005:its very bad manners. that person ought to be scolded.

But then I think the professor sorta knows him personally, or maybe he knows one of the professor's sons, that's why he could get away with it easily. So far, I have not seen anyone who dares to sit in the front row in a small classroom (of less than 30 ppl) and do this, though I have seen this being done by a lot of people in a big lecture room. -
Well yea, but isn't this basic courtesy? I guess he doesn't feel disgusted when he makes a presentation and ppl in the front row do that...but seriously I would feel very offended.Originally posted by alexkusu:hei hei..its the USA
Not to mention I have a presentation 2 weeks from now in that class and I would have to put up with this disgusting sight during my speech

I still can't tolerate such behavior...think that kid is too spoilt by too much freedom until he is now being totally disrespectful -
i also think it is unacceptable. had a shock also when i first came here and saw how some people behaved in post-graduate seminars.Originally posted by rainee:How do you feel abt this?

I have long gotten used to the never take out shoes when going into someone's house thing...I will just always caution them to do that whenever I bring Americans into my room...most of them would oblige if you tell them to do it nicely... -
