L I P S T I C K - True Story!!!!!!
According to a news report, a certain private school in Sussex,N.B. was
recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were
beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was
fine, but after they put on their lipstick, they would press their lips to
the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night the maintenance
man would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back.
Several memos were posted about this without effect. Finally the Principal
decided that something had to be done.
She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the
maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a
problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night. To
demonstrate how difficult it was to clean the mirrors, she asked the
maintenance man to show the girls just how hard it was. Following the
instructions, the man took out a long-handled squeegee and solemnly dipped
it in the nearest toilet bowl. He then scrubbed at the mirror. There was
complete silence in the room. Since then, there have been no lip prints on
the mirror.
There are Teachers... and then there are Educators.
