Perhaps I'm confused, or missing the literary impact of what you're writing...but you are Rob, are you not? Is there a second Rob that you were with? I am confused.
Actually, I've got some clarification on that point because my name has definitely gone beyond my control. A LOT of people call me Rob. As in, everyone I met since my first year. Thus, I am Robert to those who knew me before my second year of college. Michelle's convinced me that I am Robert when Rob H. is around, too. It's no use, though. About eighty five percent of the people I know at Earlham know me as Rob. The power of the monosyllabic college nickname, is, apparently, irresistable. And, as Rob pointed out, both he and I are recreational obfuscators.
Fuck Reslife!! Hm, too bad I don't have the appropriate icon I made for julesapunk. Also, see my comment in your previous entry for an amusing link just for you. -Juliana
Yeah, um there is definitly an extended stay form if you're staying on campus after graduation, and a specific form for may term housing. Plus "die res-life die" is not only stupidly immature but also bordering on threatening which i doubt the people at res life would like being written about them. its your responsibility to follow through and make sure you have housing
If they are completely unresponsive and refuse to notify their students of the proceedings, then how can he be expected to comply with that? I mean, yes, it is his responsibility, but they certainly don't make it easy. He has to sift through the masses of bullshit on the website to find anything useful. There is nothing that specifically says to him "YOU HAVE TO ARRANGE NEW HOUSING FOR MAY TERM. PLEASE FILL OUT THIS FORM." I do think res-life is to blame for a lot of this. Whenever you try to talk to them all they tell you is, "There is nothing we can do." This is certainly not helpful. But regarding the may term housing, it can be very difficult to find the necessary forms. They can talk about the form all they want, but if they don't provide it for those who are taking may terms, students can't be expected to fill it out.
This has been bothering me for a while. Whoever you are, I would really appreciate it if you would avoid insulting my friends on my livejournal. If you disagree with something, that's fine. If you want to express your disagreement, that's great too. If you want to express your feelings by insulting my friends, keep it to yourself.
tell res-life that they need to start CHECKING THEIR EMAIL and RESPONDING as is theoretically THEIR JOB, unless they desire to taste the sweet ADRENALINE that precedes getting their ASSES KICKED by a STICK-WIELDING rage monkey. OK, I made the rage monkey part up, but it is 1 am, and my brain is all loopy.
The people in reslife are busy eneough with other things. It doesnt supprise me that they may have skimmed your e-mail. I wonder though how they get to students about mayterm housing. I thought I remembered an e-mail. But I doubt they try to ingore their students.

Robert C. is ROBERT.
Rob H. is ROB. Or Spleen.
Big difference.
