But... I asked him on Wednesday what day I could come in to the school and talk to someone.  I said I could come on Thurs or Mon, and asked him which day would be better for him.  He told me they were closing early on Thursday, but I could come in from any time between 10-12.  So I email him back saying thank you, and that I would be going on Thursday. So, my boyfriend and I make the 2 hour commute up to my school.  And when we get there at 11:15, there's a note saying that he left from 11-12, and after that, they close. I talked to the lady at the reception desk and told her that I came 2 hours up, and that if there was ~anyone~ I could talk to, I would really appreciate it.  Thankfully, someone was willing to help me out... but I'm really angry with that advisor... He just took an early lunch... :(. But the person that I ~did~ talk to was AMAZINGLY helpful :).

Yeah!  I just mean... seriously.  I emailed him just so that wouldn't happen and everything.  I guess it's walk in, since I couldn't make an appointment (I tried)... but still :(. dreamweaver Posted at 12:07 pm on July 4, 2008 Well, that's the important part, I guess.

You should have reported him for that, as that is terrible. You had an appointment in which he gave you the time. And he knew you were coming to talk to him, so it wasn't unplanned. He specifically said it was 'walk in', and that he would be there from 10-12.  But then he left -__-'.  I don't want to bother though, the other lady will come back from vacation soon.  But either way, I think I got most of my questions answered :). dreamweaver Posted at 11:57 am on July 4, 2008 Quote: from Just Waiting Here at 2:51 pm on July 4, 2008 Quote: from Troll1000 at 11:50 am on July 4, 2008 good thing there was someone willing to help you while you were there =] but he sounds like a douche I know!

Is this for college? Yeah.  I had to get readmitted because of some certain things, and for that reason, I was two months behind on the first set of registration which has caused some problems... lol.
