What kind of a lecturer are you? I mean, seriously. This lecture was the last before the Christmas break and the last chance to raise concerns and questions regarding the exam we have when we return.
Instead of showing up you decide to get "stuck in Spain" like some an idiot who can't plan their journey. You're a lecturer, you have students relying on you to appear. Seriously, you've turned into a fucking joke. You appeared to know the answers to all the problems we had and you were the most professional. Over the the semester you've completely smashed that perception.
I'm paying [indirectly] to get jet off to Mediterranean countries and not show up to the lectures. Nice one.
