wat do?
I want to study however most of my lecturers are on strike. Given that I paid the university for lectures I should expect to get them right?
The university has upset its staff and they are on strike. I cannot get the lectures I paid for. They don't replace the lecturers. So I went to the vice chancellors office and the university gestapo told me to go away. All I want to do is ask why I can't get my education.
What can I effectively do in this situation given that the strikes are not working. I want to make it clear to the university that my education should be fulfilled regardless of the strike however they lock themselves in their office.
It seems to me that more direct action needs to be taken. What would be your advice Sup Forums?
Holy shit that wall of text over a lecturer strike Consider an hero
Jayden Roberts
No offence but where are you from
Brody Price
Bath
Owen Ross
Please can you elaborate I cannot see this helping the situation. The same is happening in Bristol and an hero students seem to not solve it so far.
Ayden Roberts
Brits sure love strike

What colour is your hair? Blue red or pink?
Austin Moore
Neither, it is black.
Nolan Phillips
So you're Asian. Call your father, he will sort this shit out.
John Collins
Get a job, you'll be equally unhappy with a labour job or on wellfare.
Cameron Baker
My father passed away quite a few years ago. I saved up money working in France so I could go to University.
Wyatt Collins
This is something that will garner sympathy for your vlog post. Try and get some good content for your streams from the protests
Caleb Morris
You're correct that a labour job or wellfare would be unhappy, however I am trying to improve my living standards so I can support a family in the future. That way I can get into higher paying jobs without having to spend my entire life working up for it.
Austin Miller
Tell me OP, what do you expect this degree will get you?
Bentley Ortiz
A faster way to get employed in higher paying jobs.
Adam Wood
I don't have time to write a vlog post and go to protest. All I can do for now is shitpost occasionally.
Lincoln Jenkins
this kid sure knows his stuff

>implying you'll get a job that will actually be worth the effort
I've been to college, sitting in those classes with 80 people I quickly realized that the community won't be able to give all of us a job.
Then I quit and got a labour job and guess what, ye it's pretty deanding.
But I got work experience and a solid pay, meanwhile those college bimbos are on welfare sipping ramen and can't get a job.
Samuel Martin
Well I wish to work in an engineering firm however most require a university degree of some sort. So I am studying engineering.
If I had stayed in industry it would take me another 10 years to get me to a point that university could get me in 3.
Anthony Rodriguez
Sounds good on paper, but here's the thing.
In your case if you have work experience it'll actually be easier to land a position like that, but for a bloke that spent all his time on education will be denied outright due to no experience.
Even tho in your case they'll still shove you in a position that your education really isn't necessary. Then you can just hope they promote you, but more likely you'll go through a few companies.

Thank you for your advice. I am currently in my final year and I do not think this will realistically hider my education however I am more annoyed at the money I have spent on it.
I mean if you go to McDonalds and order something you wouldn't be content with getting some of your meal as you have invested in it. I just simply want to get my money's worth out of University.
I know it is easy to think "Well that's University for you" but if this was a meal I don't think you could do the same. I feel like I should be able to do something about it in this situation.
Evan Perry
>France well, in that case, you should already be used to that
Jackson Cox
Well it's your final year it'd be a waste to quit now, my advice was more meant for starting university, but the job dilema still stands.
It's all up to luck if your education is worth it.
Lot's of people believe that a diploma will automatically get them a job, I saw colleagues posting theirs on social media, but now they're stuck.
Bentley Rivera
uni lecturer here, and politically commie. involved with trade unions etc etc.
we have these strikes relatively regularly and I FUCKING HATE IT when the line attempt to stop me coming in calling me scab and all-sorts.
The most important thing is that students get their fucking learning. Striking does not hurt the university - we're all fucking expendable. We need to focus our efforts on dismantling the fucking bureaucracy and not harm the students' experiences.
You guys pay a fucking fuckton. We don't see any of that money, but the fucking Chancellor's on £120k.
Nolan James
Demand your tuition be cut, or threaten to sue. If they're not doing their portion of their obligation, then take legal action
Matthew Morris
What this guy said, thats your only course of option. If you aren't willing to do that, then just keep complaining and wait.
Christopher Sullivan
These strikes are common all over Europistan.
Today teachers, tomorrow doctors, the day after that police, then the cycle repeats.
Connor Long
Ha! OP goes to York University. I am George Brown myself
Nathan Morris
Lmfao fucking nerd. Wish my lecturers were on strike, Coventry Uni btw.
Noah Campbell
I think you should man up you fucking pussy >going to uni at all instead of just showing up when exams week start kill yourself brainlet
Lucas Ortiz
