tell me how i shld have replied to him(my lecturer)
-
what happened was that my lecturer called me and he was like screaming at me over the phone.
he screamed at me for not being excited abt the results of the special microscope scan i did at nus earlier in the day and not bringing the pictures to him for reviewing.
i didnt bring the images to him because the images are saved in tif format and failed to load properly when i attempted to view the saved images on a com at NUS. so it appeared to me that not all computers can view such images, coms with photo editing software can. plus i know that these file types are also generated by pro cams. these files are uncompressed and not in the more popular jpeg or gif images. hence i didnt take it to him because i expected his office com will not be able to view the images and i needed to bring home to save it in a jpeg format for easy viewing. plus we agreed the other day when he called me up that i would bring the images to him tmr.
so he shouted me for assuming things, what if his com cant load and i bring the images to him? what will he say then ? how would i know how equipment is his com? how i know whether his stupid com can view tif or not ? later he screams at me for asking dumb questions like "sir, can yr com view tif ?" what if he screams at me for knowingly bringing something his com cant view and wasting time ? i told him there 's no point if i bring the tif images to him if he cant view it and he simply said" conversation over"
bloody hell!
he made this unreasonable remark that i wasnt excited and looking forward abt the results. so what do u want me to do ? jump up in joy ? bang on his office door until he opens up and shove the pictures into his face ?
there's no photo editing software in sch, i didnt bring the images to him because i expected his com to fail to recognise the images.
frankly speaking, men in their 40s and above seem to drive me crazy. first, my dad on tues, second, my supervisor in wed, 3rd my lecturer.. -
