Dressing Downer

Hammer felt the need to send all of the teachers a link to the school district’s on-line employee handbook. The link specifically sent you to the section concerning staff dress code. Sadly, Hammer is justified in sending this material for review. Yesterday, she had to send a teacher home because of how he was dressed. He keeps wearing this crocheted winter cap that covers his ears, and if that’s not bad enough, he wears unhemmed pants! My opinion is that Hammer actually sent the teacher because he is a dipshit. I mean what professional adult can’t dress appropriately for a job?

There has to be a reason why this is a problem; and trust me, this is a problem. They can’t/won’t stop this train we call “public education”. This creates desperation. That means they’ll bowl through any standards to keep things rolling, even if it means taking on every yahoo capable of recording attendance and teaching to a standardized state test. If I’m wrong, then why does the district advertise on billboards, the same medium used by all-you-can-eat buffet joints and strip clubs?

Frankly, I'm surprised that Hammer only sent one teacher home yesterday. Maybe she has plans to intervene with other teachers as well. If that's the case, then lookout “New Boobs and Proud of ‘Em” who teaches geometry.
