During computer learning in a computer lab 15 years ago, I figured out that the student passwords were sequential, so I could easily guess other students' passwords. If I logged in to their account while they were logged in, they would get booted and I'd hear the inevitable "Mrs Teacher! It says my session expired!"

I did that 2 or 3 times over the course of a few minutes before I got caught. The vice principal rambled on and on about how I was "disrupting learning" and how I "should be suspended for this" before finally telling me, "my mentor taught me a really important lesson. If your students don't hate you, you aren't doing your job."

What a horrible piece of shit.
