YOU KNOW THE DRILL

Anecdote

ONE OF MY STUDENTS TOOK IT INTO HIS HEAD NOT TO PASS THE EXAM I SET HIM IN JUNE. HE THEREFORE HAD TO RESIT IT TODAY. I WAS SUPPOSED TO GO TO LONDON TODAY TO MEET SOMEONE COMING ALL THE WAY FROM AUSTRALIA, BUT BECAUSE OF THIS EXAM I WAS TOLD I HAD TO BE IN MY OFFICE FROM 2PM TO 4PM IN CASE THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH IT.

I HAVE, HOWEVER, NO IDEA WHETHER THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH IT. PEOPLE WERE DRILLING INTO THE WALL OF MY OFFICE FROM THE OTHER SIDE. IT WAS SO LOUD, I WOULD NOT HAVE HEARD THE PHONE RING. I WOULD NOT EVEN HAVE HEARD THE FIRE ALARM GO OFF. IT WAS TEETH-RATTLING STUFF. NO, REALLY, I COULD FEEL MY TEETH SHAKING IN THEIR SOCKETS. TEETH ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT.

I THINK IT MAY HAVE DAMAGED MY HEARING, TOO.
