Malcom has a point.

Let me tell you a tale...
When I was in high school, I transferred my senior year to a crowded school. Because it was so crowded, the work-leave program was full before the year began -- before I even transferred. So, I basically had no chance to get into the program.

Because it was my senior year, I only needed a few credits and the rest of my schedule was filled with junk credits that I didn't need. This really sucked, because if I was in the work-leave program I wouldn't have to be in those classes, and I could just leave school mid-day.

Since it was stupid to be taking unnecessary credits, my dad asked me to setup an appointment for him to speak with my asst. principal. When I talked to her about an appointment, she tried to avoid it in every way. She told me to have him call her. So, I told my dad that she wanted to talk on the phone. He said that was unacceptable -- he wanted to meet in person.

After I told her that he wanted to meet in person, she fixed everything (without ever meeting or speaking to my dad). She created an entirely new class, just for me. I was the ONLY person in the class, and we met in the teacher's office. It was the teacher's break period, and I just did work from my other classes and helped her with her computer -- and because teachers got paid per class, she was basically getting paid to take her break. Talk about a win-win situation! I never had to do a single piece of the required work that was associated with the work-leave class (i.e.: timesheets, watching dumb videos, essays, etc.). All of this just so my asst. principal could avoid a confrontation with my dad!

I'm still laughing about this one!
