Lipstick In School
According to a news report, a certain school in Garden City, MI 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 washroom.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. Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. He called all the girls to the washroom and met them there with the maintenance man. He explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night. To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, he asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.

THE MORAL OF THIS STORY..

There are teachers, and then there are Educators.

Loved the tale, and I would have liked to meet that janitor.

Maybe I have. I think he was in my school when I went all those years and years ago.

He must be, oh about 96 now . . .

I'm printing this out for my building custodians. They will bust a gut. Then share it with all the school custodians in my school district...

LOL,

Rooster,

That was great.

And too, it demonstrates that you need to very careful who you kiss, because you don't know which "mirrors" their lips have been on.

My custodian pointed out that the chemicals that they use to clean the surfaces would be WORSE to kiss than toilet water...

Do print this out for your school age daughters...
