From the this week’s wild world of work once again … can you spot the lie?
1. One student protested his p.e. teacher in the quad area by carrying a sign which read: “Mr. Coltrane is an old lonely fat, gay bastard who sucks balls.”
2. I held a severely inebriated thirteen-year-old female student’s hair back while she puked in a trash can in the health office.
3. The Assistant Principal “took one for the team” when an angry student hit her in the face during breakfast.
Aaah…having spoken to you the other day, I know that #3 is true. I’m going to say #1 is the lie - the sign was probably a little more profane with misspellings!
Well I was hoping #3 was the lie until I read kdw’s comment. Yikes. Do you need cosmetic surgery? At the school board’s expense? Doesn’t that qualify as Workman’s Comp?
Guess I’ll go for #2. Let her hair get all barfy. Serves her right.
Oh never mind. I thought you were the assistant principal. You’re the Dean.(Still, good to keep in mind for when you get promoted.)
Sadly, the AP didn’t take one for the team, but a 67-year-old teacher did when she was slapped across the face “accidentally” by a student with a baseball cap. You can’t make this stuff up, so I have to change it around a little to make it a lie that really isn’t a lie.
