If you’re gonna walk into an administrator’s office and use language like “it’s not fair”, you may as well just say “don’t worry; you can keep fucking me over, because I’m not going to do anything about it”. Administrator’s don’t give a fuck about abstract subjective shit like “fairness”; they give a shit about consequences.
The only thing that’s gonna move an administrator away from the status quo is the threat of a bad consequence, or the promise of a good conseqence. Right or wrong, this is a very practical heuristic for administrators to employ in the face of a constant onslaught of demands for action.

Funny you should write about this, cuz I am wondering just exactly who does give a shit about fairness.
Did anybody ever, or am I just realizing, at this very late date, how jacked almost everyone is? For fuck’s sake, what a bunch of fuck heads. Stupid too.
