Fire a student

I just sacked my parnter. Am I allowed to do that? The guy was such a waste of time its untrue! No employer on this earth would put up with what I have had to.

Over 8 weeks he has done 6 pages in a sketchbook, a sticker, and bought some paper.

So I just said to him that I was submitting my work as a singular as he was a waste of time.

Any advice? Should I write up a report why I did it? Its submission on Friday but I dont care. hes known the deadline for ages.

Im was so angry tonight I couldnt even type.

yeah, no point in letting the stupid CUNT get credit for your work m8....just make sure its alright to do so I say, ask a tutor or something..let them know how you feel....can't see them complaining too much as you get a degree for yourself, not for yourself and the tag along.

What bluesteel said, just pop along to see your tutor and explain your reasons.

Not only that, go see your advisor/tutor as soon as possible to tell them face-to-face what you've done and why. I went through something similar on a team-project in my final year, where myself and one other person were basically carrying (eventually time got so tight we spent three days, including nights, in a lab) a team of five. I went to my tutor and told him exactly who was doing what and he said he'd look into it. End result, an A for me and the one other guy, the rest got C and below.

Whenever we had group assignments at uni, all the members of the party had to fill in an assessment sheet on the contributions of the other members. worked pretty well.

Definately write up a report, and talk it through with your tutor, preferably before the deadline. It will certainly help your case.

Well I jsut wewnt and told him I was submitting my work seperatley and luckily didnt et chinned although it wasnt far off.

Starting giving all this bollocks about no commuication and me not telling him what to do.

"Not your baby sitter mate"

Honestly you would think that after 8 weeks of not being told what to do something would twig and you would go, "Hmmm perhaps I better just be working on something"

So aggrovating because he fully believed he had done nothing wrong and was simply doing the project his "own" way.

Ahh well P45's in the post
