'Have you forgotten the rules of my classroom?': Student gets back at teacher who refuses to pronounce their name right

Seems like every high school has that one teacher who is a self-proclaimed "stickler for the rules." It's the teacher who loves to tell students that the bell doesn't dismiss class, the teacher does. Or the educator who insists that there will be no phones in class, not even to listen to music, and no food, and no talking to your friends.

The teacher in this person's story was a veteran educator with forty years of experience under her belt. She was really stuck in her ways, too. She apparently had a system and "wasn't going to let anyone change her way of doing things." After four decades of doing the same thing, this teacher had to find out the hard way that her methods were no longer acceptable to her students.

U/lollipopmadness3 shared the story that happened during their high school years. This teacher refused to pronounce their name right. No matter how many times the student corrected her, and no matter how polite the student was, this teacher wouldn't change her ways (can you see a theme emerging?) At least the student was vindicated in the end, with help from the school's principal.

After that, check out the folks who can't stop themselves from oversharing everything on social media.
