We were all summoned. All Erasmus who live in T-17 were summoned to a meeting today, through written warnings on paper and spread through the halls and kitchens, with an English, err .... how shall I say .. "Impacábel!"
The reason for the invitation only really discovered in the meeting itself, although it already distrusted for several reasons. One of which was common to all: we would take the head. The administrator
dorm from the beginning was soon action. How do you say? .. Ah, "to kill"! Perhaps that initial aggression, many of which were present countered with its dose of aggression and began a losing battle. The dorm has rules and many failures, but in fact, if we're here, we have to accomplish, and how to demand better conditions there is little to do (yes, I'ma confromado, I'm no Lech Walesa).
The first theme was the noise and parties. Can not be tolerated noise in sleep. Someone even argued that certain Polish (my neighbors, for example) often have music on the hour yelling quite strange: in the morning at 10 am for example, and nobody had complained. It is perfectly true! But rules are rules. And there bothered by loud music early in the morning to many people (like me - still on top with a sound so clear that escapes by the hole through which the cables of the Internet), nobody will change that. Another
someone complained of a Pole to have threatened to beat if not turned off the music. Another may well be true, but that does not invalidate the fact that there noise to bother people at late hours, in spite of his behavior. Here, as in several points of discussion, the manager was always one step ahead: he could always defend themselves by nobody and complained about these problems and situations presented before.
Another issue was the time of the meal. A habit and time very important for most people Erasmus: English and Portuguese. Under the rules, not allowed to eat in the kitchen or in corridors, and is also not permitted to move furniture in some rooms for others. This is perhaps the point at which the rate may be more on our side. With this rule, each one is supposed to eat in their rooms, which is quite uncomfortable. In addition, the absence of a space where people can sit and eat it that often cooked together is problematic. Causes that people would have to separate and eat it alone "in their rooms, which for our crops is quite ludicrous. This problem has already attached to the fact that there is no common room in the dormitory. Is that even bars around this complex there.
On these issues the manager said it would give the room where we were at that moment (which should be a lounge, but for all I know is usually closed), to make parties, two or even three times a week.
All this leads me to write something that should have said, especially when the manager said he had exactly the same problems existed Erasmus of the other previous: why the hell not had a meeting as soon as we get this? If you have had experience of other years, why not explain the rules and make the warnings at the outset? Explain why only after the problems emerged, when they knew they were going to happen? For me, the administration would have almost any reason (or at least the victory of discussion - not get around: the rules continued to exist, as the parties), the only flaw was the same: a bad reception of students / guests from such diverse countries with different cultures the adequate.
