rate my professor

 

Just for a second, and knowing this is bullshit all the way intended to draw me in for what precise reason I don't know, I was tempted - on analysis I realised I was really only interested because I wanted to see how they were going to try and boost my ego even more. 

I then came to appreciate they were using professor in the American sense of, anyone who teaches - possibly works for all I know - in a university is a professor, so my rating of four stars (out of forty, I assume) might mean the world to me. But only a complete dufus, I mean, professor dufus, would think a rating on Rate My Professor would be a suitable thing to put in a job application etc. 

Still, I'm sure nobody has rated me as a professor (if it was a student, why would they be doing it the week before teaching starts?) or anything else. It's that old adage of if something looks too good to be true, or really, too anything to be true, well, most things aren't true.
