I teach uni, and I see each class just once a week. Every time I see them I ask, "So how was your week, did you do anything interesting?" No response. So then I say "Well, if someone doesn't volunteer I'm going to pick someone to tell me ALL about thier weekend" No response. Then I pick someone "What did you do on the weekend" ... answer "Study"
Bullsh*t ... I've come to the conclusion that they just make the simplest answer to get me off their back.
When pushed, they went out on Friday night and got hammered, Saturday they played pc games all day, Sat night they had a "meeting" or blind date, but it didn't go well cause "She had no manners", Sunday went to church "Was, it exciting?" "Yes!" ( bullsh*t, you just want me to stop talking to you and you think that saying yes is what I want to hear and will end the exchange quicker, because if you say no you have to explain why ) Sunday night, watched a movie ...
Sinse when was going to church exciting? Do they even know what I'm saying when I move my mouth and sounds come out of it? Are they even thinking at all, is the brain connected to the mouth?
I give up ...

| OP How long have you been here now, and you still get worked up about this? Just do your job well and take pleasure in that. If they wastes their time it's not your fault. You have to learn the fine art of detachment. |
This is year 7 but I have been "in country" for about 6 years out of the 7.
And perhaps you should take your own advice ... |
