Today, after finishing a huge French essay, I realized my printer wasn't working. So, I emailed it to a guy in my class to print and then give to me. When I get to French, he said he had already turned his in early and never got my email. It turned out he used mine. I got an F on the essay. FML

WAYS TO AVOID THIS SITUATION: Take the paper with you to school, print it out at a lab. Take the paper with you to Kinko's, print it out there. Finish and print your paper earlier than the night before. Email your paper to French teacher. Go to a neighbor's house, print it out there. Email it to a REAL friend outside of your class, ask them to print it out and get confirmation that they are. WAYS TO SCREW UP: Email it to a guy in your class and assume he'll get it and dutifully print it out. Don't follow-up over the phone or anything. You're welcome.

So when you showed the teacher the sent email... What did he say?

The reason why its OP's fault is because he/she put faith into humanity. And that is something that cannot be forgiven. /Sarcasm.

Dumbass. Not only for trusting a douche, but not thinking fast enough to proof you did the essay. Or at least take it in on a pen drive. You fail not only in this class but in life too!

I agree with #2 en #3. It sounds fake. And else try to prove it to your teacher by showing the original document. If your 'friend' mails the original document and he's too stupid then your name will be in his document as well. Then he can nicely explain to the teacher why that is...

Always email a copy to the teacher first. Show your teacher the email you sent to your classmate. If he/she isn't understanding, take it to the department head or a dean or some other person who has authority over your professor. Your classmate should be punished for cheating.

You can prove it was your essay heres how: Send the file to your teacher and tell him/her to look at the date modified" under view>choose details. The date will be before the teacher received the essay. You can also show your teacher your e-mail outbox.

# 3 lol :D :D hey, tell your professor about this! you got proof, so go ahead!!

omg, show the email to teh teacher! Expel that sob's ass!
