Being made to wear cheap, uncomfortable, industrial-smelling t-shirts for English camp. They're pointless and a waste of resources. And yet some places still insist on them because **** you, that's why.

Knew a guy who was well over 6 feet tall, had a large build... and the biggest size they could get him was 110. xD He got exempt from wearing the stupid shirt.

What are they really going to do about it?Outright refusal can lead to drama, so I don't refuse this kind of stuff. But I do just "forget" where I put the shirt after day 1.
So last year my school had a major problem with students smoking on campus, which they've effectively tackled this year, and the number of incidences have dropped dramatically. Coincidentally, the kids are now all chewing gum. And they're spitting it out ****** everywhere. It's like trying to walk through a minefield, now.
6yrs of blank refusals to name tags, t-shirts and other degrading BS and I'm still here.Blank refusal seems to leave people confused and mildly dumbstruck. By the time they're about to protest, I've usually walked away and they seem reluctant to pursue the issue... it's actually kind of amusing.
I really don't know how much more of this I can take. Took Friday off for bed rest, came back today feeling a little bit better knowing that I had to come prep my materials and clean my classroom for my open class tomorrow, and as I'm cleaning two boys just frisbee the bathroom sign into my room and throw a bloody tissue in my room too. They actually broke the sign off of the wall to hurl it into my classroom. Went to go see what happened and just see them taking off down the hall. There's no CCTV and I have no clue who they were.I really have no idea what I did to deserve being disrespected constantly by these kids. If I knew what I did and I knew I deserved it I could handle it but I can't think of anything I've done to anybody.
We have name tags and mine says I'm a scholarship student...
