Education-related nightmares...
Not my nightmare, but quite scary just the same, if you know the story.
First year engineering chemistry I (and the rest of the engineers [ERTW!!!]) have to take it with
Dr. John Coxon. He has since retired. The ratings may seem good, but the course is very difficult, and tests are 10x harder and confusing than in class or text.
So anyway, in second year we need to take thermodynamics, which is introduced in chemistry.
Friend of mine was having trouble in thermo, so he hires a tutor. To his surprise, Coxon shows up with his bold, arrogant British accent and whips out his red pen, and well, goes down hill from there....
