education for all

[the last engineer]

Had my better half forward this to me ,relates to a subject discused last year,EDUCATION ,just thought id drop it off may bring a smile to a somewhat dreary monday,(it started bloody snowing again here :< )

 

 

After being interviewed by the school administration, the eager

teaching prospect said:

 

"Let me see if I've got this right.

 

You want me to go into that room with all those kids and fill

their every waking moment with a love for learning." And I'm

supposed to instill a sense of pride in their ethnicity, modify

their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse and

even censor their T-shirt messages and dress habits.

 

You want me to wage a war on drugs and sexually transmitted

diseases, check their backpacks for weapons of mass destruction,

and raise their self-esteem.

 

You want me to teach them patriotism, good citizenship,

sportsmanship, and fair play, how and where to register to vote,

how to balance a checkbook, and how to apply for a job.

 

I am to check their heads for lice, maintain a safe environment,

recognize signs of antisocial behavior, offer advice, write

letters of recommendation for student employment and

scholarships, encourage respect for their elders and future

employers.

 

And I am to communicate regularly with the parents by letter,

telephone, newsletter, and report card.

 

All of this I am to do with just a piece of chalk, a computer, a

few books, a bulletin board, and a big smile AND on a starting

salary that qualifies my family for food stamps!

 

You want me to do all of this, and you expect me NOT TO PRAY?"

 

 

i thought it was funny :o

A store that sells husbands has just opened where a woman may go to

choose

a husband from among many men. The store is composed of 6 floors, and the

men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.

 

There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor, you may

choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go

back

down except to exit the building. So a woman goes to the shopping center

to find a husband.

 

On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

 

Floor 1 - These men have jobs.

 

The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well, that's better than

my

last boyfriend, but I wonder what's further up?" So up she goes.

 

The second floor sign reads:

 

Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids.

 

The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's further

up?" And up she goes again.

 

The third floor sign reads:

 

Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good-looking.

 

"Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?"

 

The fourth floor sign reads:

 

Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking and

help with the housework.

 

"Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT, there must be more

further

up!" And again she heads up another flight.

 

The fifth floor sign reads:

 

Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good-looking,

help

with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.

 

"Oh, mercy me! But just think... what must be awaiting me further on?" So

up to the sixth floor she goes.

 

The sixth floor sign reads:

 

Floor 6 - You are visitor 3,456,789,012 to this floor. There are no men

on

this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible

to

please.

How true!
