Today, I was a TA for a history class and the class was taking a test. About halfway through, I noticed one kid had a small piece of paper in his hand. I ran up the row, grabbed his test, and ripped it into four pieces. Then I took the note from him. It said "I believe in you, -Mom." FML

Same thing different taste
Today, I was taking the final exam for one of my classes. The teacher came over to my desk, grabbed my test and ripped it in half. Then he grabbed my hand and read the note I had written on it to remind myself to pay rent. FML
Today, I found out why my history grade is so low: the kid in front of me takes my homework, writes his name on it, and passes it off as his own. FML
Today, I attempted to cheat on a test by writing some notes on my hand. During the test I had a question. I raised my hand. FML
Nice try
Today, I cheated on a math test by writing a couple of equations on my hand. Totally satisfied, I handed my test in, feeling like I had aced it. As I was heading toward the door, I happily waved goodbye to my teacher. She saw everything. FML
Good catch
Today, I was passing notes in class with my crush. I started to pour my heart out and tell him about how I've liked him for years. I was caught by the teacher. He looked at it, laughed, and tore it up. He then looked at me and said, "I just saved you from years of embarrassment. You're welcome." FML
Today, we had a surprise test at school. I was totally unprepared for any of it, so I BSd the whole thing and turned it in. A few minutes later, our teacher said we were allowed to use our notes to finish the test. FML
Today, I was in my psychology class taking the hardest test ever. After I spent most of the period trying to fill in the few answers that I knew, I looked up to see everyone with their notebooks on their desks. It was an open-note test. FML
Today, I passed my math test with flying colors. My dad thought I had cheated, so he emailed the school and told them that I had. They lowered my grade. FML
Today, I went into my classroom to find a bag of shit on my desk with a note saying, "Thanks for failing me b*tch!" FML
Today, I collected my students' notes in class to check them. One girl, who is always drawing weird anime crap in her sketchbook, turned in just one piece of paper that read, "FUCK YOUR CLASS." FML

School: the place that teaches you not to bully but the teachers are always mean to you.

1)You have to realize that you should've not immediately just ripped up his test. At least look at the thing first or if anything slyly look at it, that's what some teachers do just to avoid this. That way, you can catch them and if they aren't cheating, a scene won't be made 2) People are assuming this is college but I, in highschool, have had TAs before, I've even had one in middle school and I think if this kid is getting encouraging notes from his mom, he's probably not a university student. 3)You also have to know that your just a TA, not an actual teacher yet. You have authority and responsibility, but it's situations like those that need people who are patient and don't make rash decisions like you did. I understand why you would think he was cheating, I would think I same. But ripping up his paper without nay question was too harsh.

Many commenters have been over reacting about your post, yes I agree you over-reacted and handled the situation poorly. But you acted on an impulse, that is only human. I hope you told the teacher what happened and sincerely apologized to the student.

You guys, it's not really his fault. The kid was breaking rules, no matter what to note said. Plus, you probably would have thought the same thing if you didn't know what the note said beforehand.
