Office hour? Make that plural...

Office hour of Prof. B. of the Linguistics department on Tuesdays:
19:00 - 20:00
My appointment with Prof. B.:
19:40
Time Prof. B. arrived:
19:10
Time first person on the list (19:00 - 19:10) left the office:
19:45
Time second person on the list (19:10 - 19:20) left the office:
20:06
Time it was my turn:
21:10

And I've only been in there for five minutes or so. It seems that the people who were in the office before me - the four people who had been in there before me - had wanted exactly the same. So... what did they do in there???

But I am really thankful that Prof. B. is willing to sacrifice his evenings to the students. There were 5 or 6 people to go when I left, so it will have gone on until ten at least.

I love my university. Parts of it, anyway. I loathe other parts. Did I mention they organised another strike this morning? The students, that is. The same two or three departments are on strike every bloody semester.

The Great LiveJournal Outage of 2005 During the outage I bought a smal Eastern European nation. What did you do? Brought to you by geek-foo

Yay, now I own one of our fellow or nearly-fellow EU countries. And apparently I also modernised English spelling, dropping the superfluous second ls.
