    Hahaha my Japanese instructor in university was not particularly good at his job and when I told him I was planning to drop he told me I shouldn’t cause the class would just get easier as it went.

    When it was past the drop period he confided in me that he was actually only trained in Chinese but the kanji was about the same so was filling in until the school could find a real Japanese instructor and that he only needed a few more hours for tenure and if I had dropped he wouldn’t have had enough students in the class for the hours to count…

    I think Universities are broken just from the level of economic and social stress making people just be less involved in their work and more in themselves.

    It’s easier to keep the mill grinding than to stop and make sure it’s working properly.
