Mohammad, I'm sorry to hear your side of the story. Personally, I have tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, because I am also learning about the AS/400 (from scratch, by myself, using manuals, books and any internet site and/or forum that I can possibly find). However, questions do come to mind about some of the remarks you have made within this particular e-mail. Instead of remarking that the lab technicians are fools, you should look to yourself (based upon some of the questions that you have posted) and wonder if you have the "right type of logical brain" to be in this business, or failing that, if you have the right work ethic to try and work some of these problems out yourself, even if it is by trial and error. Sometimes just "playing" on the AS/400, you can find/grasp ideas that at first you did not comprehend. Look at other books that your tutor/instructor may not have suggested. "Control Language Programming for the AS/400" (second edition) by Myers and Riehl (Duke Press) I have found to be a really great book, and in many cases a god-send. >>> mohammad khan <mohammadakhan@yahoo.com> 10/20 2:23 AM >>> ---Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@IQUEST.NET> wrote: > > Mohammad ! > > All due respect buddy !!! > > BUT... > > First, try speaking with this instructor and explaining your frustrations. Do > your fellow students feel this way also ? when i took this issue up w/him (i had his basic rpg course the last semester) he let me know quite plainly that he was not interested in helping me. one reason was he said this was because of some low remarks i made of him on the ANONYMOUS teacher evaluation forms you fill out at course's end. this guy felt it necessary to try & humiliate me in front of the rest of the students during break time. he gave me letters and cards from the previous semester and said that so many other people enjoyed the course, yet i failed to. i was speechless as he reiterated his unwillingness to help. when i pressed him on the issue of why he never replied to my emails during the first course he said that he never replies to his email and asked how i got it. i smacked my forehead and reminded him that he gave it to the last class w/the express purpose of using it. he told me to use the lab. i told him the lab people were fools. which is true, everyone complains about them. discussion ended about then. > If this yields nothing - and I > know this may be difficult if you plan on continuing your education at > wherever you are - AND if we are getting the WHOLE story, you may need to > speak with the department head about all of this (your instructor having no > time to meet with you, answer questions, give clear instructions, etc.). If > your fellow students feel this way also, take them with you ! > > Good luck ! > > Chuck i ought to speak to the head but what's the use, any institution that violates student privacy can't be trusted to take student claims/issues as seriously. besides, the course is part time, the instructor has a full time job and it would just be a waste of my time. i'm tired of fighting w/him, but i'll tell you one thing. he's going to get even worse remarks when this semester ends. and now that i know he read the first evaluation form and knew it was from me i'm going to give him some real shit this time. sincerely, Mohammad _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
