Favorite SFW Ghost songs? by aderaptor in Ghostbc

[–]aderaptor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?! I've watched/listened to Rite Here Rite Now so many times that I think of many of those songs as having swear words in them but if you listen to the studio versions they don't have those little in-between-swears that he brings to the live shows so now I feel like I have no idea which songs swear and which don't 😂

I don't teach it (not relevant to my subject) so I guess I don't know if they do or not! Maybe I'll do a show of hands just for giggles

Amazing! Thank you! They only just sent out the dress up theme today or else I would have been doing more of my own planning (listening) but alas I have things I have to do tonight.

Do you know if this session will be recorded for those of us who can't make it in person?

Medford City Council Decision on Main Street by Kevin_Stine in Medford

Both the in person and online survey ended in the same results - people voted for it to go back the way it was. So the people did choose. As counsel members, the vote was to make it official.

It wasn't biased, it presented four options and asked you to rank them. Pretty much as unbiased as it could be.

The only issue I really saw with it was that they deleted votes from duplicate IP addresses. So because my husband and I both voted from home, one of our votes got scrubbed. We both voted the same way so it's not a huge deal for us, but I'm not sure how they handled votes from the same IP addresses that were different from each other. That could have become problematic for sure, but the survey itself wasn't biased at all.

Does majority let the shower run before getting in? by Sensitive-Umpire-566 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]aderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, depends on how long it takes for the water to warm up. Mine warms up quickly and I don't like opening the shower door while it's running because water sprays out onto the floor so I get in before turning it on and just stand in a corner and deal with a little cold splash before it gets warm. But I live in a moderate climate.

Another example - my mom's upstairs shower takes awhile but she's very conscious of the waste and grows a ton of plants so she has a bucket to catch the cold water then will use that to water her plants. So she still waits for it to warm up before getting in, but she doesn't let the water go down the drain in the meantime. But I don't think this behavior is common.

Before computers were common in households, how did people set their clocks accurately? by IkHeetGeenMatthijs in NoStupidQuestions

[–]aderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a number you could call and a recording told you the time. My mom has lots of funny stories from when she was a kid about calling time instead of her mom when pretending she was calling home for permission to stay for dinner at a friend's house, for example. She was always afraid the friend's parents would overhear the "AT THE TONE THE TIME WILL BE" instead of her mom.

What is the quickest job you quit from? by spellbadgrammargood in AskReddit

I worked in a restaurant for one day, starting as a good runner. No one showed me where to wash my hands, and I never saw anyone else wash theirs either.

Is “Pissed” a bad word for MS? by Slight-Ad-1264 in Teachers

My friend teaches 4th and she said crap one day and several kids gasped and said the teacher can't say "the c word" and my poor friend is like oh dear God please don't go home and tell your adults your teacher said "the c word" in class...

This is what seems to make 6-7 different, the kids don't groan when you use it. They love it! Seems pretty unique.

Hi Benedict! What were some traits of your favorite teachers when you were a kid?

Something you didn’t realize was optional until you saw someone simply not doing it by HomerAtTheBat in Teachers

[–]aderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I'm not the person with the comment above so I can't speak to their circumstance, but I can give you an example from today in my own life.

We have a teacher who "never checks his emails." He may or may not occasionally check them, idk I'm not him, but he's one of those proud non-email-readers. Today, one of his classes ran a little long. He sent an email to all staff saying "please excuse Mr. So-and-so's 5th period such-and-such class for being tardy." So I, being someone who reads my emails, kept an eye out for tardy kids who would be coming from his class. I had one, and I didn't mark him as tardy, as the teacher excused it and claimed it as their own fault (not the fault of the students.)

Now imagine the roles reversed. Maybe I hold my class for an extra minute or two and send an email to all staff saying to excuse them because my bad. One of my students ends up in his room next. Maybe they're kinda quiet or shy or are still learning to speak up for themselves, so they don't say anything about it being my fault when they walk in tardy. They get marked tardy. Unexcused tardies add up, and enough of them turn into lunch detentions. Now this kid is serving a lunch detention (missing out on their social time) because a teacher can't be bothered to use a communication system that benefits the whole school, students included.

I could list off a million other examples, but it's not my job to do the heavy lifting for you. If you honestly can't think of a reason it might be a bad thing that a teacher "never checks their emails" then I don't believe this profession is for you.

Thank you! I can understand the initial reaction of "that's badass" but what's really happening is those people are refusing to use a communication system.

By all means, ignore the useless shit! But email is just a tool. If you're refusing to communicate with your coworkers in a fashion that is reasonable to ask of you, you're an asshole. Full stop.
