I will say again, these young women are useless and a total waste of space. I have always hated TA's, and it is one reason why I only worked at universities in China. I have no sympathy for TA's whatsoever, and I make no apologies for that. They are low class, and deserve no respect. We shall agree to disagree.

Oh dear me, did you never have sex with your TA, Silverboy?

Becoming a TA for a Chinese girl can be a big step forward-a good first rung on the career ladder. If you retrain your TA properly you can have lots of days off and let her take the class-and the same works for her.
