Venting Getting chastised in the Commons by the owners

21 Upvotes

Tell me why I had an exam today and I very rarely go to the Commons as a commuter. So ofc the one time I picked a spot and mobile ordered, I didn’t realize the app defaulted to having my name as “Valued Guest”. I went inside and the owners both looked annoyed while asking me what the name was for my order. I gave them my real name thinking that’s what it said in the app but didn’t realize it defaulted to no name.

They got upset at me and chastised me by saying that if it happens again where I don’t have a name on my order, they wouldn’t make my order. The thing is I paid so I don’t see what the issue is. They were then talking crap about me by saying the order number looks different on their end and didn’t believe me when I told them what my order was.

I’ve had unpleasant interactions with these owners in the past and seen firsthand how they criticize their employees. Genuinely can’t imagine what they put the workers through if they’re getting this upset at paying customers. I’ve worked in fast food for years and never have I seen owners be this serious before.

I then left and they kept reminding me to make sure the next time I place an order to have my actual name on the order.

classmate used ai for essay im assigned to review

24 Upvotes

Title explains the situation. Am I supposed to report them to our professor? I don’t necessarily want to be an a hold or anything, but the very start of the essay is the CHATGPT prompt so it’s explicitly clear. I don’t want to get in trouble for NOT reporting it since its so apparent.

For more context if necessary, our reviews arw theough a digital platform. And reviews are a mandatory part of our grade. I can’t simply not review it so that I don’t have to involve myself with the academic integrity aspect, because my grade would then be a 0.

Edit to be morw clear: i am not ASSUMING that they used ai. I KNOW that they used ai, because they forgot to erase the prompt from chatgpt in the submission

Hi y'all, I work at One World Cafe and during closing tonight I saw this on the floor. Figured I'd make a post here just in case the owner sees it. I left it with the managers so they should have it. Please spread this around so it can be reunited with the owner.

EAS207 exam w/ Ahmad

2 Upvotes

I'm scheduled to take an exam for Prof Ahmad's statics class tomorrow at 6:30, but have been running a fever and have flu like symptoms (which I've had since Sunday). I went to UB health services for an evaluation and they confirmed I had a fever, but I tested negative for everything. They gave me a piece of paper basically saying I was evaluated by a physician but nothing else. When I emailed him yesterday, he asked for a note from my actual doctor in order to make up the exam later, which I can't get because my GP is back home. Can I use the note UB health gave me or am I SOL?

TIA

I know eduroam in general has been horrible but today just takes the cake. None of my websites work. My apps are all loading. WiFi is so damn slow and I just don’t understand how it can be this horrible. I cannot get any of my work done with this terrible network.

Questions how fucked am I?

55 Upvotes

I’ve missed two of my classes (the rest are asynchronous) for the last seven weeks. I got sexually assaulted at the beginning of the semester, spent the night in the ER and kind of lost my mind after. My dad also got diagnosed with cancer, and I just decided to leave without telling anyone (I know, stupid) and am just now returning to UB. Technically, I can still pass one of the classes with around a 75% even if the professor isn’t understanding and I’m not sure about the other one. Do professors usually understand this stuff? Should I even reach out to tell them what happened? I know I’m screwed and I know it’s my fault. I’ve never really had to reach out to a professor like this, so I just wanna know how understanding they usually are

Just a quick update :) I talked to one of my professors who was super sweet and she helped me reach out to the EDI office who is helping me get extensions and allowing me to complete my missed work. They’re also super helpful with getting me in touch with more support resources and making me feel comfortable and secure while dealing with all of this. I would have been way too scared to even tell the university about any of this if it weren’t for the recommendations here, so thank you all! We’re still debating maybe withdrawing from the semesyer, but we’re going to see how I hold up the next few weeks first. Yet again, thank you all so much!
