I used verbose writing in my essays in my British Lit class and my teacher thought I was plagiarizing, so I had to re-write it using small words so that she didn't think I was stealing it from someone. I have no idea where she got that idea from. I've never plagiarized any paper ever. I never would, I would never risk getting caught and getting in trouble. I used to work for her at the same time I was working as a Nurse Aide. She's the same moron that went through work-study students like there was no tomorrow bc no one could stand working with her. She was an annoying, rude, hyper-critical jerk. She told me that I needed to be better prepared and conduct myself appropriately and professionally bc one day I would be getting a real job in the real world. I looked her dead in the eye and said I HAVE A REAL JOB. I mean what the hell was she talking about, I'd been working in the real world since before I'd ever started college! She said, well maybe you should find another work-study position, expecting me to say no I want to stay, but I said YEAH, maybe I should. She looked at me like I'd just committed a murder. Thanks Ms. Knott, for being a total jerk.
