That instead of clicking that wonderfully easy "DELETE" button, each professional took the time to write out his/her tirade. <br /><br />The meanie part of me thinks you should blog each response with a photo, name, and e-mail link. Then people who google them could see how very professional they are. <br />But I might be feeling vindictive because I forgot to take my happy pills this morning...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-84800463100091167862010-02-02T11:19:41.046-08:002010-02-02T11:19:41.046-08:00Hello!

I volunteered once a week for several years at their schools. <br />while working in the teachers' work room I heard many outrageous and telling things. One that comes to mind is hearing the words, "Does anyone know how to use this?" coming from over my shoulder. I turned to see the 6th grade math teacher holding up a protractor! When I mentioned this to my sister who is also a math teacher. Her response was, "Well, at least she asked."carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08689554278402927322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-36104486404920913282010-02-01T20:23:34.345-08:002010-02-01T20:23:34.345-08:00I was all about to type in "remove me from yo...I was all about to type in "remove me from your list" when I realized that I voluntarily clicked onto your blog & am chortling as I leave a comment!

This often involved the sending of email to the faculty listserv inviting them to workshops, to call me for help, sending them important notices about services, just generally trying to make sure they could find me if they needed me. <br /><br />Almost every time, someone did the very thing you mentioned in your post. Please don't email me anymore. Take me off the list, etc. The list, however, was required by the provost. Nothing I could do about it. It was kind of fun to email those people back and tell them to take it up with the provost if they wanted to. None of them did. And they all forgot and the cycle repeated itself.<br /><br />One of many reasons I no longer have that job.Laurahttp://geekymomblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-28387983924646326602010-02-01T10:23:39.181-08:002010-02-01T10:23:39.181-08:00While I will admit to enjoying hyperbole from time...While I will admit to enjoying hyperbole from time to time --and enjoying it here : -) -- many are true, including your school is stupid.
