All the people excusing the teacher. If you make a rule, ******* obey it. Otherwise you're a hypocrite.
There are generally extenuating circumstances to rules. This is an example.
Damn, my comment got moderated. Well, to re-phrase what I said in a more "polite" form, the man's wife just has surgery, for Christ's sake. I think he had a good enough reason to break his own rule. If you were in the same position, what would you do? Just stressfully wonder about your wife because you don't want to be called a hypocrite?
If he won't let his students do the same thing, he has no right to do it. That's shameless hypocrisy.
#128- I'd be glad that rule is there in the first place. At least the teacher cares enough about you and your education to enact the rule in the first place. OP could have just politely asked about it, instead of making a joke, as he explained as commenter #85. The teacher probably blew up because he was really stressed. There are always exceptions to a rule though, such as when surgery/death.ect happens. Personally, I'd get mad whenever students were just being idiots that didn't care about their education.
Maybe I'm an arsehole but I feel you had every right to do that. I don't think you should feel bad OP
First of all he shouldn't be using his phone at all during class, no matter the reason, that is usually a school policy, making him a hypocrite, lastly, what the **** is he doing at work?! He should be with his wife! He is a bastard.
If I were him, id get a sub and clear things with the principal and then go. I understand his situation but he should at least explain himself.
Not all schools have a policy where he could just take off to be with his wife. And honestly it's not any of the student's who he is on the phone with.
Sounds like BS. Why wasn't he with her?
Why was the teacher at school while his wife get a tumor removed? Shouldn't he be by her side for support. Who goes to work while their spouse is having major surgery? smh
Usually, if something like that happens, in my experience, the teacher lets the class know, like, "Hey, XYZ is going on, and I may need to step out to use the phone during this class. Please bear with me."
I agree with you, he shouldn't have made the call. He could've missed the day or called before or after class. We get in trouble even with valid reasons, so should they
OP, you don't deserve that shit from a hypocritical teacher.

I assume since the teacher made that rule he'd make sure it's a damn good reason he's using it.
If he really hates phones you should've realized it was something serious.
