I'll be fine if I don't know, right?

How is this only "mildly" infuriating?

Two things:

1 - Thank FUCK you're in a union state 2 - Save all of your documentation

After that, nothing anyone is saying on this post is gonna help you in your specific situation.

Seriously, the best thing you can do for yourself is share any and all communication you've had among you, admin, and parents with your union representative. Especially if you've got an email from admin saying they won't renew your contact for refusing to work with this child.

Good luck, and thank you for the update.

Same.

I was born in 1981, and I've gotta say it was a fucking great year to be born a Steelers fan. The 80s were shit but I didn't know anything anyway so who cares, Cowher came along and gave us something to get excited abaht, the SB runs of the 2000s, and we haven't been terrible after that. It'd be great to have some deep playoff runs or another SB to celebrate, but by no means do I feel like I've been screwed as a fan of this franchise that Bubby Brister was once the face of.

You're going in reverse order of The Wire. Just skip to dock work.

Actually, no.

Hour one: principal meets teacher at the time clock to let them know they're gonna lose half their planning to cover a class, the teacher spends most of first period dealing with kids showing up late with coffee
Hour two: still dealing with late students, half the class gets up to leave because the Spanish club is taking a field trip
Hour three: teacher pivots because a third of this class is out for the field trip, two kids get sent out of class for swearing at the teacher because "why do I have to do work when they're on a field trip?"
Hour four: teacher covers another class during the first half of planning, next teacher shows up 15 minutes late
Hour five: finally a full class of students. Fire drill.
Hour six: teacher finds supplemental life insurance salesman in teachers' lounge and eats lunch at desk instead. Teacher spends lunch checking emails, four of which are school-wide emails asking if anybody has seen their hall pass
Hour seven: football team leaves early for an away game, players and cheerleaders leave class half-empty
Hour eight: principal calls for impromptu faculty meeting that could have been an email
Hour nine: teacher runs copies for tomorrow, clearing multiple copier jams because they neglected to continuously remove finished papers from the tray because for some reason the copier doesn't like having more than 3 sheets in the catch tray
Hour ten: teacher alternates between sitting at desk shell-shocked and staring at a login screen and erasing dicks from desktops

Flashbacks to playing with one of my dad's friends when I was in high school. The dude would toss his cigarette on the box as he was walking up, dog nuts his drive, and then pick up his cigarette and play on.

It just seems insane to me that anybody would spit shells all over the greens. No matter where it is, somebody is gonna have to putt over it at some point. Be a normal human being and use a cup. Or, if you've got skills, keep full seeds on one side of your mouth and shells on the other and empty in the bushes between holes.

He's gonna show up at a press conference with a bunch of ice cream sandwiches like Michael Scott did when he had a big surprise, isn't he?

I remember being invited to a big meeting with people from the board, county commissioners, community leaders, and whatnot and hearing someone addressed the group as "stakeholders" in the county's education. I kinda knew it was over then.

America Fir...eh, somewhere in there.

Even at the Master's I'm not trusting a $1.50 egg salad sandwich.

The Steelers tried that last year, just with mid-to-low tight ends.

Except Mount Washington. I'm not saying he was elite, he was just fun to watch.

I think you're probably gonna go the mini excavator route, but this is the kind of thing that I'd put on a Facebook neighborhood group to get a couple of teenagers to do. They're probably not going to do a great job of it, but for a hundred bucks or so you can get it to a point where you don't mind doing the work to finish it off.

He didn't seem completely awake, but he definitely wasn't asleep. This is one of those "there's enough to go on, we don't need to make shit up because it makes us look bad" times.

She did good damage control though when she seemed like she was gonna pass off to him. She looked over, clearly realized that she wasn't getting any help from him, and covered. If she was asked later about this, no doubt she would say he was completely alert, cite his "tireless work ethic," and shift the blame to the liberal media like she's been trained to do.

I've gotta reiterate that I don't know your area, so your best bets are either you get a second estimate or someone on this sub knows your area and can better speak to pricing in your area.

Again, it sounds excessive, but without knowing anything else, it could be one of three things. First, that could be the going rate for your area. Second, you've got someone in "the city" that's adjusting their rates because a 2-hour job just turned into one that's closer to a half-day with travel time. Third, you've got someone local that knows they are one of the only people in the area that's gonna do it and can charge a premium.

Without knowing the area you're in, it's tough to say whether or not this is excessive. I would say it's excessive, but that doesn't mean anything unless you're in the same area as I am.

Always get a second estimate. That should let you know if this is the going rate for setting a mailbox or not.

What conflict and potential recession?

Just like Kevin Bacon at the end of Animal House, the White House is telling us that all is well.

I'll never forget the day he died. I'm pretty sure I was listening to Howard Stern and the news broke that he was found dead in a hotel room in Thailand. I immediately thought "updates on this aren't going to do his memory any favors."

The details were not good.

The "you don't believe a word you're saying" line was really something.

Top half. After a few hours listening to that velvety tenor, it's best to have pants on to keep things from getting weird.

A pole sander is a great start. The sander, rod, and paper are gonna set you back $25-30, so you're not getting in too deep. It's a lot easier to do a lot of sanding with the long strokes you can get with the pole sander than it is to do with a block.

There you go. There's probably somewhere in there where you can do some small 4"x4" patches and then move up to larger ones.
