this isn’t a pet peeve but i had one teacher that was bad mouthing me on a zoom call i wasn’t on (i know this because my friend was there) and she was bad mouthing me because my zoom was having issues and i couldn’t join the call at the eXaCT time
i eventually joined and AFTER the call i apologised as i genuinely felt bad (this was before i found out they were bad mouthing me) AND THEY RESPOND ALL NICE LIKE “don’t worry your friend told me why you couldn’t join!”
like HUH
