There is absolutely nothing more annoying than a teacher having favorites. Trying to get a certain teacher to like you is like squeezing a lemon through a raindrop. No matter what you do, how hard you try, or how many 100%s you can achieve, their opinion does not change.
On the other hand, I do not enjoy being a teacher's pet. An adult supervisor over such a vast amount of students needs to either maintain no personal relationship with any of them or appear to be interested in helping all of them. When an opportunity is offered to me I assume it is offered to all other students. I do not want to be favored nor do I think it is justifiable for any other students to be favored.
To go along with that, some teachers really need to let loose a little bit. I mean, COME ON! Advisory? What's the fucking point? No one enjoys it or learns from anything we do in there. Thirty minutes of reading is not going to smarten our generation either. Maybe the kids aren't smart because the teachers aren't doing a good job. Ever think of that?

As a student I hated the teacher's pet too. Yet as a teacher it was hard not to have favorite students. Being a teacher was the hardest job I have ever had.
