The writing center..

So I've been reading and everyone seems to have had a problem with the writing center this time around. I know I sure did. The chick that was my "tutor" blew me off. I went in there at my appointment time and she asked if I needed help with anything. I was like well I don't know if my works cited page is correct and so she looked at it and was like ya you don't need to put unknown for an author you don't know. You can just leave it as the cite page title and that will work fine. But other then that it looks great. She then wrote on the slip that she looked over that, signed it, and sent me on my way not even asking if I needed help with the body of the paper. She acted like it was a chore to help me. Isn't this her job or something to help out? So frustrating. Every other time I went to the writing center they gave me a lot of helpful input and made me feel a lot better about my papers. Why can't it always be that helpful? I'm just very thankful we had the peer reviews or else my paper would be horrible with no input from anyone. I never realized until this class how helpful other peoples views and points are. It is so great to have them read it and make the corrections that are needed. Or else they can just tell you what will make it better. Thanks to that my papers always turn out a lot better.
