That is...Wow, I didn't know it went to the teacher! That is a great overtime rate. I appreciate that they have to enforce it exactly, though, because when you start getting into squishiness, there's that whole danger of slippery-slope action.towwashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14114892350923262185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17927225.post-30027626237476944342007-06-05T08:50:00.000-05:002007-06-05T08:50:00.000-05:00Know what I found out today?

That chick cleaned up last night. <BR/><BR/>Pop quiz, math geniuses...<BR/><BR/>Let's assume that the other little girl's other made it there by 6:15. If the teacher has my $25 for the <I>3 whole minutes</I> she stayed with the Monkey and the $25 from the other little girl (assuming it's a flat $25 and not a sliding scale fine)...what was this teacher's overtime rate last night?<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>...if you answered "a helluva lot more than I make in overtime" you're absolutely correct.<BR/><BR/>Wow.

And I thought it was normal traffic ridiculousness (unusual for a Sunday, but not unheard of), but then discovered that multiple traffic lights were out (definitely confounding to drivers - it's a four-way stop, people, it's not that hard) and also, some power lines were down and they had two of three lanes closed. <BR/><BR/>So, then I didn't feel quite so annoyed at my fellow drivers, because squeezing from three lanes into one is a good reason to slow down.towwashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14114892350923262185noreply@blogger.com
