Now, I don't know what a tiger like yourself needs in the Teacher's Lounge, but I'm sure you have a good reason.

You'll have to ask your teacher the answer to that question though. I'm just an administrator.

Hello. My name is Ms. Gardener. Do you have any elementary positions available at this time?
 
Posted by The Principal (Member # 5721) on :
 
::shakes hands::

Nice to meet you, Ms. Gardener. Please, have a seat.

Actually, now that you ask, enrollment here at Hatrack has been growing in leaps and bounds, and, yes. We were looking to expand our faculty.

What are your credentials? I mean, we would accept you anyway, being as we are so desparate at this time, but it's a formality, you know. [Smile]

Edit: sorry about that. My spelling is atrocious, I am, after all, a mere administrator...

Someone actually did that at my school once.. It was HILARIOUS....

(runs away)

Edit: Actually, it was funnier, as our Principal's name was Mr. Brom. The sign said, Do not feed the Brom, which just sounded funny to me....

No thank you, I have sugar issues. I graduated from Ball State University with an Elementary Education degree. I also have a Science Endorsement. I've worked at two long-term sub positions, one of them in Gifted and Talented. I have taught in England. Seeing as how you're desperate, and I'm really quite good, what might I expect in terms of salary?

Oh, and that tiger would be a lovely mascot.

Hello, I would like to apply for the position of school bully. As part of my job, I will go around and beat up kids for their lunch money.

Part of the profits will go towards feeding the starving children of some 3rd world nation. I may be a bully, but I'm very benevolent about it.

*pulls out list*

Pat...Pat...Ah there we go. You have had your beating for the year. I specifically mark off every name so no single person gets beat up twice a year.

Now you can all avoid being beat up with my monthly installment package. You won't be beat up as long as you pay a small fee every month. This will eventually equal the amount of lunch money I would have taken from you, but over the course of the year.

If you have already been beaten up by me, I am also starting a bodyguard service. See me on the playground for more details.

A beefy, red-faced man knocks self-importantly on the Principal's door, rustling sheaths of duplicate and triplicated papers.

"Mr. Principal, I am afraid there are some problems with your little school here and if they aren't cleared up, we'll have to cut back your federal funding. To be concise, there is an epidemic, a rash if you will, of violent behavior. Additionally, there is the little issue of your student's test scores. How do you plead?"

The Government Flunky, now VERY red-faced, covered in dumpster filth and extremely irritated, stomps back into the Principal's office and icily declares:

"You had your chance. You blew it. Now, just so you know how serious I am, I am henceforth removing your School Lunch Program money. We'll see how you like dealing with hungry children! Hungry, mean, disrespectful children. If things don't improve, I'll remove your sports funding NEXT!"

All part of the job sir. Hmmm...

*steps in front of Government Flunky*

Now Mr. Flunky, imagine how parents would feel if they find out that their children are not being fed properly. Now, if this information that you've pulled the school lunch program were...leaked to the public, imagine the results when you get to face hundreds of angry parents.

*pats Flunky on the back* Have fun.
 
Posted by The Principal (Member # 5721) on :
 
You know, sarcasticmuppet, you may be right. This government aid does nothing but corrupt the school. We don't need it anyway. Not with graft and such....
 
Posted by Government Flunky (Member # 5727) on :
 
"Get real, Gottmorder! Your parents are demanding that the government step in and take control by ANY means necessary - including starving their children. Perhaps with a little less food, they'd sit still longer and learn more and then the test scores your parents complained to me about would be improved . . . "

The Government Flunky winks at Gottmorder.

"You'd make a great secret service agent - how'd you like a job? I guarantee that it would pay more than the pennies Mr. Principal pays you, be far more exciting and involve lots of travel - all expenses paid at standrad government per diem rate, of course. What do you say?"
 
Posted by Gottmorder (Member # 5039) on :
 
Sorry sir, my Ph.D is in school bullying. Part of which involves basic biology. It is a well known fact that food provides energy and vital monomers important for cellular production of ATP. Without food, the students will have far less energy, be much more tired and less attentive. Students will be in worse health, and this will result in a massive decline in grades, which the parents will soon find out is a result of your actions.

I ask you to reconsider. If I am forced to, you can meet my friends, Mr. Wall, Mr. Dumpster, and Mr. Concrete.

ikantspell? Did you have an appointment? Oh, well. I'd like to think that my students can drop by and visit my office any time they like.

I'd like to institute capital punishment for offenses, but I already have miscrea--I mean hall monitors that are readily available to discipline anywhere throughout, and in some cases beyond, the hallowed halls of our wonderful school.

Unfortunately, this presents a problem in itself. The preferred method of discipline that my hall monitors employ varies with the hall monitor. And one of those monitors, a certain tiger-like one, possesses the edict of hugging and kissing as his method of discipline. A method that works very well, indeed. [Smile] [Cool] [Angst] [Grumble] [Wave] [Laugh] [Wink]

(The other uses sarcasm, which is far more cruel, of course.)

Would you like a position as Crossing Guard Captain? We usually don't promote such junior classmembers, but interest in the position is down, as of late. It doesn't seem like much of a position at first, but it's a leg-up on political positioning, and would look very good on the resume' of any boy who might someday apply for School Bully, or some other available postion. And the posibility for other, shall we say, income in the postion can be quite gratifying.

Stop! Stop!

This is insane!

...

Can't you at least let me get it on video for my application?
 
Posted by Crossing Guard Captain (Member # 5778) on :
 
But I'm angry now! I guess we'll wait a few minutes for you to get your camera.
And I'm not insane, I'm eccentric.
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
OK, I'm ready. In 3... 2... 1... Action!

Hey, I never retired as a belt, y'know.

*Shifts video camera and moves slightly to the left to get a better view* This is great stuff! Really great! I'm a shoo-in for audio/visual! Now, could you do that again, but this time, face the camera and show some emotion! I'm not believing that crossing guard is really in pain!

I'm glad I wore my iron underwear today!
*jumps up and beats the crap out of Black Mage Matrix-style, then takes out baseball bat and beats him while he's passed out*
You're not the only one who can fight dirty.

Cut! *Changes film in 12.98 seconds* OK, continue! You're doing great work people.

*jumps up and twirls in thair, kicking crossing guard on each twirl, then hits crossing guard with the m.d. device. Crossing guard is now a pile of dirt.*

I win. [Party] [The Wave]

I always found the assistant principal more feared than the actual principal. Then again the principals never seemed to do anything.
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
Wow, this is great footage. Now where is that principal? I can't be appointed president of a/v if he isn't here! [Grumble]
 
Posted by Black Mage (Member # 5800) on :
 
That's my position too, Julie. *points md device at her*

*Pile of dirt melts, combines, and forms into Crossing Guard Captain.*
Luckily, I was able to borrow some special effects from a movie studio. Now, you shall die.
*Cuts off Black Mage's head and takes MD device*
Is this too violent for your movie Julie?
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
Well, normally I would say that a little blood goes a long way, but this is an exception. It's so realistic, I'll be pres. for sure! Now, do you think you could show a little emotion about having been hit by an m.d. device and living to tell the tale?

*android Black Mage collapses, its electronic head several feet away. Five hundred Jackie Chan-Black Mage hybrid ninjas show up and start beating the crap out of crossing guard. One thousand Johnny Depp-Black Mage pirates show up and kill crossing guard.*

I'd like to thank cloning technology, and, and, erm. .. me.
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
So this is what happens when ninjas and pirates fight: they side together and beat the crap out of everyone else.

Penalty: Illegal use of androids, ninjas, and pirates. Also, you have made this thread into a warzone, which is not it's intended use, that is why we have The Do Whatever You Want Thread.

This fight shall be moved to The Do Whatever You Want Thread, and you shall lose the use of your right hand.
If The Do Whatever you want thread is inconvenient, we can either start a new one, or hijack a useless one, I leave that up to you.
 
Posted by Black Mage (Member # 5800) on :
 
New thread

So is blood good for the grass?

*Staggers in, flips on light*

My! What has happened to my office?

*Opens inpenetrable safe, deposits mysterious muslin bag*

I'd better go get that Janitor!

*Leaves for the Hatrack Janitor's Quanset*

*Grabs peppermint on the way out*
 
Posted by ikantspel (Member # 5752) on :
 
Dang! I was really hoping we could hijack a thread, I shouldn't have left it up to you.
It's really fun to go into a random thread and blow people up, it makes people angry and confused. [Smile]
okay, we need a name for the thread and a referee.
 
Posted by Black Mage (Member # 5800) on :
 
the thread is black mage vs. crossing guard. Julie can ref.

*bump* So do I get the A/V gig? Do I? Do I? Do I?

*fumbles with keys*

Oh, the door's open....

Hi Julie. Here's your AV Keys.

*Tosses Julie several pounds of keys*

Try the toffee on your way out.
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
*catches keys, tastes candy*
Great! Thanks! I'm going to go to the AV room and reorganize it. Last time I checked it was a huge mess!
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Um, Principal? Where are the State Standards books?

And I was wondering... Can I buy copies of Ender's Game for all my students? We're studying science fiction next semester. Also, I'll need the gym set up for Battle Room, with no gravity and all that.
 
Posted by Government Flunky (Member # 5727) on :
 
"Did I hear someone ask about governmental standards?"

*Rubs hands eagerly in anticipation.*

"Which state's standards would you like?"
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Ewwwww! Principal! There's a Government Flunky in the Teacher's Lounge!
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
*Walks in with many keys dangling and jangling from belt* Wow! That AV room was worse than I thought. Mr. Principal, could I have permission to shoot a video of our school (the good parts only, of course [Wink] ) to attract more students? It would be designed to attract only "good" students who would help to bring our test scores up. Plus, I would get to try out some of this great high-tech equipment!
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Hey! AV Lady! I need the Battle Room set up. Do you happen to have the equipment for that? Also, don't look now, but there's a Government Flunky skulking around.
 
Posted by Julie (Member # 5580) on :
 
Yeah, I saw him. *glares in his general direction*
I can set up some really cool lighting, but if you want the gravity manipulator you have to ask the Tech department. For some reason it's split like that. [Dont Know] Also, don't forget to ask the home ec classes to make the suits for your class. Shop classes might be able to throw together some guns (light of course!).
 
Posted by Government Flunky (Member # 5727) on :
 
*Crosses arms and frown impatiently*

There are health and safety regulations that you must follow, you know . . . you are all treading on very thin ice here . . . [No No]
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Aw, c'mon! It's hands-on cooperative learning that meets or exceeds National and State standards in science, social studies, and mathematics.
 
Posted by Government Flunky (Member # 5727) on :
 
"Intercooperative, schmoperative. How does it test? We can't leave ANY child behind and there must of course be proof of acceptable progress . . . I'm sure you understand . . . "

*Triumphantly folds arms across chest and awaits reply.*
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Dang,you're nasty! I'm sure my Principal will be happy to back me up on this.

Uh, Principal?
 
Posted by College Grad (Member # 6015) on :
 
My lifelong dream is to give children the desire to learn!

I am young, naive, and believe I can change the system!

I just got my masters and believe I am ready to take on the Public Education system!

I am screaming for someone to make me hard and cynical!

Here's my application, Mr. Principal, sir.

"It's not the principal you need, child . . . you need beaurocracy!"

Heh, heh, heh - the Government Flunky raises eyebrows in anticipation . . .

"Did they teach you anything about government and legislative control in school?"

Waggles raised eyebrows meaningfully . . .
 
Posted by College Grad (Member # 6015) on :
 
but...how will beaurocracy help children to have a desire to learn?
 
Posted by Government Flunky (Member # 5727) on :
 
*Blinks in amazement*

"You ARE new, aren't you?"

Grins in anticipation.
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Hate to tell you, College Grad, but now you'll NEVER get hired. Well, maybe as a substitute. People with Master's degrees cost too much. See me? I just got in here on a bare Bachelor's degree. Ask anybody - it's wisest to get your Master's AFTER you've made yourself indispensable to the school.
 
Posted by College Grad (Member # 6015) on :
 
The money's not important! I'm here to give children a desire to learn!!! I'll work for a bare minimum of other teachers' salaries. The smiles on the learning childrens faces are valuable enough!!!

Oh, hi. Do I know you?

Hello, Principal!

At the risk of repeating myself,

Oh, Jenny, here's a wad of cash.

::Hands Jenny a roll of bills the size of a frisbee.::

If you need anymore, we can comp you...

(how is she going to get microgravity in the gym? [Dont Know] )

Oh, and the Flunky is just an observer. Pretend like he's not there. (Really, he's alright.)

Have some peppermints, it's nearly Xmas!
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
Yeah! Thanks Principal!

*leaves office humming non-religious holiday songs*

Now, where are the PE instructor and the Physics teacher?
 
Posted by The Principal (Member # 5721) on :
 
::Wakes up on the couch, stumbles about the office::

Boy, what a bad case of bed-head!

::Stumbles out::
 
Posted by The Principal (Member # 5721) on :
 
*unlocks door, flicks on lights*

Yow! Another school year. I guess I'd better get ready.
