Something that happened to me today

[lalam]

Hmmm i know this might sound funny to some of you but i feel so much remorsed that i just had to find an outlet.
This very ****ed up amazing thing happened to me at my institute thats IIHT and yes its the guwahati centre i'm talking about. As a rule none of us are allowed to take in our shoe inside the classroom so we're provided a shoe rack to keep all our shoe in there. What actually happened? Huh some lowly ****ers stole my chappal! I feel so pissed off for it was a nice reebok shoe.
Whoever that ****er is i want you all to curse him with me.

Yea it is common in colleges also.. I have seen may of my friends loosing good quality shoes outside computer labs.

in my junior college shoes werent allowed in the computers lab and once this guy had his shoes stolen ... good decent family guy got pissed then next week onwards he started bringing a bag b4 going to for the prcs he would remove his shoes in the classroom put em in a bag and put the bag near his school bag (our classrooms would be locked once every1 left) so u can also try that

Do they actually ask you to remove your shoes and chappals before you enter the computer lab??? ROFL
This is insane.

Add imav too!!

The idea does sound a little weird to me O.o Why no shoes? I mean, they'll probably yell at you if you walk around the entire college without shoes on

In our coll, we're not allowed to wear heels in our labs. But thats because some idiot had tripped and dropped acid all over the place...O_o

@cynosure They usually have a notice "Please remove footware before entering the LAB". They will not tell one to remove the shows if they forget . insted they will ask to read the notice.

[cynosure]

I dont know, this is weird. Cabinet fans can suck the dust from nowhere. Its not like if you wear the shoes then only the PCs will have a dirt threat.
And I dont think that PCs can have any side effects if theres a little dirt inside. Mine has a whole rajasthan inside.

[indian_samosa]

The notion that computer labs should be like a clean room is still at large.

Forget the colleges, a computer store near my house asks its customers to remove its shoes before coming inside the shop. So even if you just have to ask the price of some thing, something that hardly takes 15 seconds, you'll have to waste 2 minutes in removing and putting back your shoes. Its no wonder why there aren't any customers in that shop.

Immagine where your pair of shoes goes on a typical day in college ..

Clean Places ... Class room. Canteen .

Not so clean places.. Road.. Cricklet/Football field..

Imagine you are on your way to college and a beautyfull girl is passingby on the other side .. and you are staring at her as you are walking .. and donot realise that you steped on a a pile of cowdung in one shoe and chewing gum on the other. and you enter your "Cleanest" LAB ... Obvioulsy you will be pissed off for ruining your shoes and so will the admins at the lab for ruining the floor with cowdung and bubblegum

And depending on how college maintains the MEN's rest room.. it cannot be immagined.

In the early days computers were costly and were considered very delicate. So such a practice started. Because of the conditioning and inertia effect almost every shop and institution is still insisting on it. Only people like us know the reality. And the parts have become very durable over the years. We also clean the innards of our perfectly working PCs occasionally and find the dirt and debris are more than the components.

Hightime to change the idiotic regulations.

[almighty]

^^^ agreed
and even one more myth pc dont run without ac enviournment
LOL....

[ratedrsuperstar]

hey in my junior college they used to ask us to remove our socks too

clean lab but filthy smell all around.talk about a complete turn off!

[janitha]

Yes,such myths and superstitions continue even in our 100% literate Kerala.

[Quiz_Master]

Well. Even we have a rule here to remove our shoes before entering ComputerLAb. But we never lost any shoes

But some time ago someone stole my best friend's mobile in college. I was really pissed that time.... (Even took care of the suspect outside of college, his leg fractured. )

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

lolzz we dont have any such rules

[Sukhdeep Singh]

That were rules in my school when i was in 7th standard i guess At that time, all were scared of PC LAB with black painted windows and no shoes and AC's and stuff

Looks like your college PC staff think the PC's are of "FIRST GENERATION"

Get real man!! The cowdung and Chewing gum will wear off till I reach the college. And I know nobody will move ahead if there's cowdung and chewing gum sticking on his/her shoes. First you have to remove the dung and other stuff, then only you will move ahead.
You presented an impossible scenario.

This all remove shoes stuff happened with me when I was in class 4-5th.

I don't think that people in other countries make other people leave their chappals outside any labs.Very cheap behavior.Not exceptable.Better start cleaning the environment.

Watch Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. There the students leave their shoes outside the classroom and wear shoes(They look like they are made of wool though ) kept outside the class.
