When I was in middle and Jr high school we weren't allowed to carry backpacks, and teachers would straight up get mad at us for being late, forgetting anything, asking to go to a locker etc. It was AMAZING to get to high school and be able to carry my bag. My grades also got better because i didn't constantly leave assignments in my locker, or in general lose them
At that point, the teachers and whoever is in command. Needs to follow their own rules like the one you dealt with. And make them feel what the students have to deal with. I doubt they would last one week with that rule. Along with the part of not being able to leave the class, to grab one paper. That they forgot to bring with them.
Our middle school had color coded disciplinary slips with Pink initially being the most common and usually resulted in the punishment being a single detention and you were banned from the quarterly Honor Roll field trip. My 7th grade year they introduced a new yellow slip that was for offenses that were “too light” for a pink slip like missing homework etc. and the initial punishment being a detention and banned from the Honor Roll field trip. Well this backfired big time due to just about everyone getting a yellow slip almost weekly, there was barely any room in detention and attendance for the Field Trip was almost non existent. What’s funny is this went on for almost the entire semester and they didn’t fix it until the next year!
“If you have time to lean you have time to clean” and the idea that doing nothing is inherently wrong, even if there’s nothing to do is how I ended up learning that if you have a clipboard and a furrowed brow, everyone thinks you’re busy. My buddy and I, both Corporals, would take a clipboard and an outdated inventory sheet and wander around. If someone asked, we would point out a (known to us) discrepancy to justify our lollygagging. It never failed. Our skates were lethally sharp.
Partial backfire. My elementary school boarded up all the windows to save on heating costs. Because it made the place more like a prison the teachers fought back and now each classroom has one window not blocked for the sanity of everyone inside. I was in college when this happened but my mom told me story as she is still friends with some of the teachers at the school (very small town).
Story 2: Teacher ordering kids with backpacks to place them in a burning building. Wow. Just wow. I want to see a South Park episode where the school implements this rule. And we see the kids refuse to follow this rule but get punished by the teachers for not following this rule. And we see Butters think "I don't want to get into trouble" and tries to go into the burning school to leave his backpack in a burning classroom, dodging the fire as he tries to go to his classroom. And if Butters refuses to go into the burning building, I can see his parents grounding him for "breaking the rules".
During my freshman year of high school, it was announced that we weren't allowed to dress as certain figures for Halloween, and this included devils or devilish creatures. This school is in the state of Georgia, so you'd think that this would make sense, right? Well, the irony is that the school's mascot is often portrayed as a devilish creature. So naturally, the rule backfired when we showed our school spirit, and the rule was never brought up again. I'm assuming it was revised, but we never got closure on it.
Sometimes I just watch your videos cuz there is something about your personality and the energy you give off that just warms my heart, I love the people in my life but sometimes I just feel so different from them and the things you say just makes me feel like I’m not the only one who thinks so compassionately and rationally, and I love your humor. Keep doin what ya doin
For story 4: I could NEVER work my locker's combinations, so I never used any of them. And had ALL my books in my backpack, even non-school books. If schools are so adamant about the no backpack thing, then give us laptops or tablets with ALL the books we need and then some on them. All you'd need then is a small carrier bag for it and no more backpacks or such. But then they'd find a problem with that as well after a time. They kinda forget that girls NEED backpacks for more than just school books and such. We need them for our feminine monthly products as well, as everything else. Schools suck even at the best of times. They should really talk to the students more about things going on in the school and not just the teachers.
I'm a teacher and my school tried to implement a "no headphones or earbuds" policy. Students couldn't even have them in the hallways. Kids would sneak them in and teachers wouldn't enforce it after the 2nd week of school. Eventually, they dropped the rule
Have fun getting a new job after being written up then. Rules exist for various reasons. And sometimes we discover they cause more trouble than they were worth.
The store I worked at expects you to clock in 10 mins before shift, but you only start getting paid at the official start of your shift. They also have a habit of waiting until you clock out before asking to speak to you. They always say they'll edit your hours to include the time you stayed to talk but 9 times out of 10 they forget.
about those school backpack rules, i have similarly bad experiences, though not exactly because of a school rule. in elementary school we had usually six different classes, with a thick-ish book, a notebook and a folder for each, in addition to the other necessities. as you can imagine those things weight adds up to uncomfortable levels. we once weighted my full backpack and it got to nearly 10kg. imagine a six year old child wearing this nearly a third of their body weight all the way to and from our school, which was ontop of a small hill! needless to say, they added lockers for the book in the school building at some point.
I work at a place that uses buzzers to inform customers their order was ready. About 6 months ago, one of the higher ups decided they didn't want to have us use the buzzers anymore for a more "personal experience with the guests." Since my workplace often was a person short (at minimum), this meant we needed to hire a third person to help us with it. It was fine for the slower parts of the shifts, but it ended up making rushes longer, as one of the two people on register had to help the lobby person with carrying orders, effectively doubling our wait time to order. Expo person would take up the other register for a bit, but you know the consequence of that. After about a couple months, our boss decided to bring back the buzzers and take the reaming from the higher ups. Didn't have to abandon the buzzers since.
Ripley's aquarium worker here. I get yelled at for both working over 1-10 mins after work was supposed to end (I'm under 18 because they hire 14-17 year-olds) and if I sit in the back for 20-30 mins before it's time to leave work. I like to clock out at the exact hour because of the first rule.
Worked on a youth centre candy store. In an attempt to ensure the kids didn’t spend all of their allowance they introduced a £0.50 per visit limit with the only exception was if they wanted something that costed more (0.65 was the most something costed.) Well on the one hand it kept the line constantly moving but the kids wised up that they could go to the back of the line and have enough time pass to get served when they got to the front again enough time had passed. Needless to say kids would spend more time waiting to buy candy rather than doing anything else there. This was summer vacation, when they went back to school the rule was lifted. They later introduced one where they couldn’t buy more than three of something. They saw greater success.
In 2008 Orange County school board in Florida had this brilliant idea of flipping high school and middle school school hours to conserve power in high schools during the wee hours. They soon realize they’re not actually saving much power because when high schools don’t have to power the lights at 6:30am the middle schools would. As the cherry on top it threw the entire county in chaos since middle schoolers are oversleeping left and right and high schoolers complained they didn’t have enough time for after school activities and most importantly the football game preps. After pissing off the entire county the school board reversed that in 2009… when I was actually heading into my freshman year. The class of 2013 became known as the losers who had to start their days a full year early than everyone else. Good times.
My work got rid of chairs because someone in upper managment thought we looked more productive standing. The work stations were waist high to short people, and multiple people were injured on day one from the awkward haunched posistion and the chairs were returned. Almost a year later, they implimented the same descision, but slightly different and found unrelated reasions to fire everyone who was injured the first time around. One guy was fired for not smiling enough. I no longer workat that company
When I was in middle school we had the no back pack rule, plus we weren't allowed to go to the locker. And the books were very heavy. 12:18 is exactly what happened to me.
Eesh, sounds like a hassle. Here in South Africa, we did need backpacks because lockers aren't a thing here, but my mom doesn't like schools because of how heavy our stuff is, claiming that when we walked to school and she carried my bag, it was even a bit heavy for her. And that was in 1st grade-
Now I'm unfortunately stuck with mild back pain. For different reasons though, but I'm glad I started homeschooling in 5th grade cuz during the first few months of the year, my maths teacher kinda sucked.
@galacticlezbian my urgent school doesn't have lockers, but we also have laptops and no books so it's better. At least in middle school my mother got me rolling back packs to avoid back pain.
Funny thing about my grandfather: During Desert Storm, he was a mechanic for the A-10 Warthogs. One thing about him is that he was known to just about have the whole plane taken apart to find stress and cracks in the plane bodies. This earned him the nickname the "Crackmaster." Today it is part of his email address. He even got a plaque and some goodies with "Crackmaster" engraved onto them. PS During his last year he was going to be on the field fixing planes but one of the guys told him that he knew what Papa would do. So instead of being on the field he was assigned to train the next group of guys.
Long story short, my catholic school banned long haired boys as well as expelled any long haired boys that were already in the school. The ban lasted for about a month until one of the parents argued with the head master saying that the school revolves around a long haired male individual. The ban was lifted shortly after and all of the long haired boys who were previously expelled were let back in.
I was in 9th grade when the original Gameboy came out. I had that thing less than a month before I felt it was essential for me to have it in school every day...
Small town, one high school. We have an open campus (kids can leave for lunch.) Among irate students and parents were also restaurant owners who make the bulk of the income from these students and parents. It didn't take long to reverse the decision.
10:33 I grew up in the time kids were just starting to get smartphones. I got around those rules simply by not having a phone and instead bringing my 3DS XL, all the teachers didn't mind as long as I wasn't using it in the middle of class.
Am I the only one who thinks that bosses who use that whole "You got time to lean, you got time to clean" on employees who do their jobs should be forced to quit?
One time in middle school the school administration put in place the rule that students were prohibited from using the bathroom during the first and last ten minutes of class saying it was "so the kids won't miss instructions" and this one time I just got back from having lunch and I drank a bunch of water during a chugging competition so by the time class started I really needed to go, I raised my hand and asked the teacher to go to the bathroom (she said no, of course) so i stood up and started to walk to the door. She started screaming at me but I just ignored her because I was on the verge of peeing myself. I speed-walked to the bathroom and did my business, when I got back to my class she was yelling at me for needing to go pee while she was teaching. I just looked at her, dumbfounded. She ended up sending me to the principals office and she ended up being fired. Lol 😂
A) it is REALLY interesting how fitting your voice fits your appearance, lol, and B) the rule was that there was no sharpie on the walls. I began using pencils, instead. No one noticed, and I visited that school recently (they were running a public event, and this school is in my neighborhood). My mark is still left on that school. :) it wasn’t anything big, they were just small Scorpio symbols, since that’s how my signature is.
If I was in one of those schools that ban backpacks, I would just quietly follow the rule. Keep my books in my locker. Walk between classes. If I'm late, I'm late. If they complain, just tell them that running in halls is against the rules (honestly, it probably is) and that there's no way I can walk between between classes and make it on time when I have to stop at my locker every time. But that's just me.
It was technically the rule in my middleschool and only a few stickler teachers enforced it. I preferred to just carry around everything since I was a chubby kid and the halls were usually choked with a bunch of kids just standing around and talking and it was especially hard to navigate since there were many diffrent buildings so you could have one class near your locker but your next one was 4 buildings away.I continued to get threatened with in house suspension by one teacher who didn't want the bags in her class and got written up a few times. I tried using the locker but it would usually make me late/show up without everything in my mad dash to get to class. It was a no won situation for me.😩
During one of those fitness gram things i was tested on push ups one year. They were using this weird device to count push ups (basically a switch you hit with your chest). It had two little pads attached that couldnt spread more than like a medium laptops width. Issue was i have long ass arms. I would basically have to touch the middle of my upper arm with the same arm's hand to get down that low with my hands on those pads. The teacher would not allow me to spread my hands further so i can do proper pushups for my body. I only got one before i gave up. I'm not strong i can probably get 5 maybe 10 but thats pushing it but i can definitely do more than one
Oh my gosh, I have some. We utilized the wanker to get around the rules against offensive language when I was in sixth grade (1998-99). We had learned a few new languages before the conclusion of the school year. While I was in middle school, there was an attempt to ban bottles due to a fall concern. Instructors just brought in water coolers and cups in class so that kids did not have to constantly go to the fountains. Ice was still permitted, which melts into water, creating a fall danger. In high school, however, it was war. (2001 til 2005) At the time, only seniors were permitted to dress up for Halloween. In my freshman year, I cosplayed as one of the A*Teens because there were no rules about what might be considered a costume. There had a rule against bandanas, but not against durags. As a result, several of my classmates are wearing them. Of course, they had sweeps to deal with tardiness. Cue two black students in my class tolling both the English and History teachers by taking their classes to get around the system. There was no control over names for a long time. For Halloween 2002, my sophomore year, my group of misfits plotted and pulled off a Bart Simpson intercom prank. I tricked the school into thinking Sara Lumholdt was a student. Another team joins in, adding names to the student rooster like Biggus Dickus and Incontinentia Buttocks. When it comes to school computers, we identified a way that allows us to bypass the controls and obtain cheat codes and game manuals. During the spirit weeks, one student showed up wearing a sleeveless shirt, boxers, socks, and slippers. Nipples were not to be seen. The kid got away with it since it fits the dress code. I have a few more but that's some of the few I had on my mind.
6:16 my school doesn't have bells, and things work just fine. Everyone is on "cell phone time" so things are synchronized. If someone needs a bell, that teacher can set an alarm on her phone. I have one to remind me when to send my students to lunch, but that's all I need. What is really appreciated is when the PA system is only used for emergencies. When a student is needed up front, It's a hassle for the front office to look up the student, find what class the student should be at that time, then look up the classroom number and call that number. It's much easier to broadcast over the PA system. But what happens is every 20 minutes,, class is interrupted with "Billy, please report to the office. Billy, please report to the office." I'd explain to my class that Billy is *so important* that it's worth interrupting my class to tell everyone about his every move. Fortunately, my school telephones the classroom. I'm only interrupted if it's one of my students.
In year 7 (about 11 years old), we had a girl pass out on sports day from heat stroke (I live in sweden and it was the hottest day of the year). They continued with sports day after she was taken away in an ambulance, 3 more kids required urgent medical care after that day, they didnt stop sports day becauae they "didnt want the other kids to miss out" most of us werw scared of dying. Most parents complained
I did a temp job for neiman marcus. Clothes cam off of truck, you had to change the the hangers, price the items and put plastic on it . 10 hours days no talking. I was so glad when the moved me upstairs to the shoe dept. Was able to talk with the ladies
It's only recently I realized just how liberal the dress code was at my high school. Nobody batted an eye at booty shorts. My school didn't allow any electronics too. Took until a year after my 2013 graduation for them to be allowed and even then only during lunch
story 12. As a teenager, I want to say all of my peers can last almost an hour without a phone, and as someone who is addicted to technology, I want to say those teens are Maniacal. All Teens in my school didn't even act like this without their, I hope. Maniacal - someone who is behaving in a crazy, wild, or uncontrollable manner. Maniacal - an extreme addiction to an object, substance, or activity.
Story 3 - Also, the F2 key is your friend in these kinds of situations. Or you could just bring home on a device like a USB stick and then rename it at home and then bring it back with the new filename.
Imagine the students renaming the server files. They probably have backup files, but it might take them a while to figure why the whole school went dark/offline
When I heard the fourth story, I was too European to understand why backpacks should be banned in schools. I’m glad that we don’t have to live with these problems.
I'm glad I don't live on a continent where it's apparently a requirement to bash other whole nations. I don't personally know anyone who has been in a school shooting. I do personally know people who hated living in Europe.
When I was in 8th grade a rule was passed that backpacks weren’t allowed in the classroom and you’d be given ISS if you were caught with your backpack during the period that rule was quickly rescinded after my friend had an asthma attack and her parents threatened to sue the school district for negligence
My middle school had a no backpacks in the classroom rule. Their excuse was that teachers could trip walking down the rows of desks. I thought that excuse was stupid because piles of notebooks, binders, and loose papers would be much easier to trip on, more of a fire hazard, and just as capable of fitting under the seats compared to backpacks. There were lots of "bookdrops" on staircases. Having a zippered binder helped (especially if it had a handle or strap) but a lot of people had a bunch of loose papers so when it was slapped out of their hands it made a big mess. Not sure if they've changed the rule.
In my school when Covid hit we all had to use mask of course but this made a problem. If kids couldn’t read the teachers or each other’s faces they didn’t know what emotions they were having leading to the years after Covid where they couldn’t tell if someone was angry or sad or happy. This is probably why the fourth grade were horrible. They got so bad that one of the nicest pre k teachers temper went insane. She screamed at them like crazy and me and another student rushed out of there instead of waiting to see what would happen. She made a lot of them cry and my other classmates were late because of her. That just goes to show how annoying kids can be when not able to tell what other kids were feeling. I’m glad it’s summer now. One time I met this really annoying fourth grader. We asked him what he was doing and he said saving lizards. He picked it up and pulled out what he claimed was a parasite and let the lizard go. He did this with about to more lizards. When my mom was driving me home I told her about this and she freaked out. She called one of the head staff at are school( she knows them because she’s on of them) and told them about this. Turns out the kid was dissecting them. Needless to say he was in big trouble. Another time me and my friend were running across the field to him because he was trading candy. While I was running over I kicked a kickball over there. When I got over there I found out the kickball had landed smack in his head and it was going really fast. He was on the ground crying like a baby. Don’t feel bad for him though . He deserved it. This is why I believe karma is real. Thankfully he a lot nicer now.
My middle school implemented uniforms when I was in 8th grade. It was supposed to cut down on bullying but all it did was make the insults more personal and physical. It also became easier to spot when someone wore the same clothes which, as kids, was considered to be funny. They stopped after 2 years.
TBF the lack of bells makes a little sense because in collage and university there were no bells and we didn’t have problems with lateness or anything we had two sites and sometimes our lessons were split between the two sites it took 15 mins to walk between the sites and we still had minimal problems with late ness except when i got lost down by the river and ended up in Shiplake but I only did that once.
Having students admit things that they wouldn't say to their parents will inevitably tell the school to tell the parents what they said. That is such a trap to get them in trouble.
9:48 I'm gonna mention this RIGHT NOW!! School Rules vs Emergencies. The next call could be urgent that the designated driver is hospitalized, and that the student needs to see him/her, Barring school's rule.
I mean, the no bags on floor makes sense. Especially if, where I work, the classroom is darkened because we're using a projector. You don't want to deal with lively kids slipping and cracking skulls open.
11:00 idk, my dad when he was young once had a fun idea to light some gasoline on fire and burned off the siding of one of the walls of his house. He also drove a dirt bike off a cliff.
honestly I thought story 3 was gonna end with someone sneaking into a teacher or admin's office and renaming an important file to have the word 'pokemon' in the name and cause a genuine disruption to school functions
My school has airport level security in order to get in, large freaking lines to get into the building, every. Single. Day. Teachers would then get mad at students for being late when in reality the only way to get on time was to show up half an hour early, hell no. And, to top it off, we couldn’t carry backpacks either, even with all the security students have to go through to make sure there were no guns (or metal forks) we still couldn’t carry backpacks, why? You already confirmed we don’t have weapons, they even had a machine that would scan you. And…..the backpacks rules were even worse because you could only visit your locker before first period, before lunch, after lunch, and at the end of school. If you were caught going to your locker between classes you would be sent to the detention room. And…to put it into even more of a perspective of how weird our rules were our school doesn’t have bells, in our school when the teacher says you leave, you leave, if the teacher looses track of time and sends you to your next class late, you’ll still get marked tardy, if a teacher tells you you can go to your next class after you finish one last assignment, you’ll still be marked tardy. F*ck public schools.
Middle School Tried banning Dyed Hair... So you could expect how they were when every single person in that school came with dyed hair. Best damn Silent protest we ever had. Two weeks later they retracted the rule.
I personally think all schools should have mini lockers in each classroom and should keep their books for that class and school supplies in them if they want to make the no back pack rule work...mini locker version of the old cubby hole system from pre k and kindergarten 😊
Omg my school did the 'no bell' thing and it worked.... Everyone respected the timetables including the teachers. I think we only had the bell(a small single ring) for the end of breaktime, but even that was later removed. Now that I think about it my school has experimented a lot with us.. we even had freedom days one year, three days where no rules applied to anyone. Plp went crazy but also all the couples got outed. Ps: we were a boarding school.
No one had cellphones when I was in school. Only four classes per day, so not too many books to carry. Only two classes worth at a time since everyone had time to go to their lockers during lunch.
When my school banned backpacks I carried em anyway. When the smart kid who never gets in trouble at school suddenly gets saturday detention EVERY WEEK the higher ups quickly take notice. That rule got revoked. Edit: I forgot to mention my school also made a rule where you could only have the books needed for THAT class in the classroom. They also for unknown reasons INSISTED classes MUST be as far apart as possible.
The school I technically had that backpack rule but even they knew visiting a locker within five minutes would be an ass pain even if you knew the code to unlock it so it wasn't enforced at all. Good thing too because I had to carry two large hardback textbooks AND my assigned laptop my graduation year and IDK if I'd fair any better than the person with a screwed up spine that originally mentioned it.
My grammar school required that we all had a hall pass. Some jag hole decided to throw the classroom hallpass into the lights and it got stuck there. That hall pass rule faded a way after a while. Another time,my grammar school had to have students have a permission note or permission slip to hang out in the school playground after school hours. I was hanging out after school. My then controlfreak teacher was driving home. He stopped his car and told me and another kid to go home. Judas priest.
My company boasts about how we work 7.95 hours rather than 8 hours a day for the employees. After about one to two days working it is obvious that work often requires you to stay a few minutes late each day at least. The hours are so the employees never get overtime. 🤦♀️and now our calls are recorded but they just added recording our screens. I got reprimanded for the order I did stuff in. Even though all my numbers are great. Who cares what order it’s in?!
So on the "No phones in school rule" I don't think it was intentional destruction but a number of incidents of students screwing around with things like paper wasps and such which caused that sort of damage. Though I suspect that "destroyed marker" may have been the culprit. *insert cartoon multiple ricochet sequence of said marker after it's fired from about 6 rubber bands"
Ketchup and Mustard counted as fruit and vegetables as part of their meal requirements that they were obligated to provide...When parents found out, they ripped the School Board apart for it. I think they were trying to save on money.
My current school doesn't have an intercom system, so we don't have any bells. However, the current state I'm in hives us laptops, so we just keep track of the time.
On the ‘sending people back into a burning building to put down their bag’, how do you misunderstand the rule that poorly? The rule is ok, having the students leave their stuff behind to get to safety easier, but how do you misunderstand that bad?
Ok I'm going to admit for the longest time I thought Mainly Facts and Mostly Facts were the same channel and I felt like I was going crazy from the voice changing all the time.
For Story 3, IT also forgot that you can just press F2 on a file to rename it. Though, to be fair, IT did an incredibly stupid thing disabling the right click menu in the first place.
middle school 8th grade (year 9) so our principle said NO PHONES and if you were found with said phone they would take it so i was able to get students to listen to me and i told all of the students in that school to grab the classroom phones and take them home and give it back at the end of the year
Story 24: Usually, mandatory classes to make you better citizens are classes like "History," "Government," and "Social Studies." I have no idea what this non-sense was, but it wasn't helpful.
My school is only allowed to fill our water bottles are too big... Most of us have hydro flasks (in my school it is the common size) and half is not much. ITS JUNE. Anyway i just ask to fill up my bottle, i either do it fully eitherway or i ask to fill it up twice
Classic story due to grafiti the school closed one of the 2 boys rooms (small school) rumor says it was lifted cause someone had an accident cause they had to go literally to the other side of the building.
Yeap lol, I did this in high school and it worked for the other students but since that class was my aunts class I didn't get to skip it. She draged me in the class while the others went to the gym to play dodge ball
My school did mot want the safety board involved so they never upheld the more than ... amount of tadries they need to be called for extra inspection on the situation so when they implemented a come in early for detention when you where to late i just never went and they could do nothing about it as the next step would be letting the board know. Terrible because i was late due to needing extra sleep because of abuse so that board would probably helped me but they cared more about appearing like a good school. I had to follow even less rules as i followed the bilingial programme they where using as a showpony
When I was in middle and Jr high school we weren't allowed to carry backpacks, and teachers would straight up get mad at us for being late, forgetting anything, asking to go to a locker etc. It was AMAZING to get to high school and be able to carry my bag. My grades also got better because i didn't constantly leave assignments in my locker, or in general lose them
At that point, the teachers and whoever is in command. Needs to follow their own rules like the one you dealt with. And make them feel what the students have to deal with. I doubt they would last one week with that rule. Along with the part of not being able to leave the class, to grab one paper. That they forgot to bring with them.
You should've carried around an oversized briefcase.
@@dominickeijzer5844 no bags of any sort were allowed except small purses
Can't even carry backpacks in High School
Our middle school had color coded disciplinary slips with Pink initially being the most common and usually resulted in the punishment being a single detention and you were banned from the quarterly Honor Roll field trip. My 7th grade year they introduced a new yellow slip that was for offenses that were “too light” for a pink slip like missing homework etc. and the initial punishment being a detention and banned from the Honor Roll field trip. Well this backfired big time due to just about everyone getting a yellow slip almost weekly, there was barely any room in detention and attendance for the Field Trip was almost non existent. What’s funny is this went on for almost the entire semester and they didn’t fix it until the next year!
“If you have time to lean you have time to clean” and the idea that doing nothing is inherently wrong, even if there’s nothing to do is how I ended up learning that if you have a clipboard and a furrowed brow, everyone thinks you’re busy. My buddy and I, both Corporals, would take a clipboard and an outdated inventory sheet and wander around. If someone asked, we would point out a (known to us) discrepancy to justify our lollygagging.
It never failed. Our skates were lethally sharp.
Partial backfire. My elementary school boarded up all the windows to save on heating costs. Because it made the place more like a prison the teachers fought back and now each classroom has one window not blocked for the sanity of everyone inside. I was in college when this happened but my mom told me story as she is still friends with some of the teachers at the school (very small town).
That sounds like a violation of some kind
@@Trixie_Lavender Massive fire code violation. I'm shocked firefighters responding to fire alarms didn't force them to change it
@@redjoker365That's probably why the one window per room became unblocked. Minimum compliance.
Story 2: Teacher ordering kids with backpacks to place them in a burning building.
Wow. Just wow.
I want to see a South Park episode where the school implements this rule. And we see the kids refuse to follow this rule but get punished by the teachers for not following this rule. And we see Butters think "I don't want to get into trouble" and tries to go into the burning school to leave his backpack in a burning classroom, dodging the fire as he tries to go to his classroom.
And if Butters refuses to go into the burning building, I can see his parents grounding him for "breaking the rules".
THAT WOULD 100% HAPPEN!!! I love Butters sm and his parents are assholes. The story sounds like something straight outta South Park. 💀
During my freshman year of high school, it was announced that we weren't allowed to dress as certain figures for Halloween, and this included devils or devilish creatures. This school is in the state of Georgia, so you'd think that this would make sense, right?
Well, the irony is that the school's mascot is often portrayed as a devilish creature. So naturally, the rule backfired when we showed our school spirit, and the rule was never brought up again. I'm assuming it was revised, but we never got closure on it.
Sometimes I just watch your videos cuz there is something about your personality and the energy you give off that just warms my heart, I love the people in my life but sometimes I just feel so different from them and the things you say just makes me feel like I’m not the only one who thinks so compassionately and rationally, and I love your humor. Keep doin what ya doin
For story 4: I could NEVER work my locker's combinations, so I never used any of them. And had ALL my books in my backpack, even non-school books. If schools are so adamant about the no backpack thing, then give us laptops or tablets with ALL the books we need and then some on them. All you'd need then is a small carrier bag for it and no more backpacks or such. But then they'd find a problem with that as well after a time.
They kinda forget that girls NEED backpacks for more than just school books and such. We need them for our feminine monthly products as well, as everything else.
Schools suck even at the best of times. They should really talk to the students more about things going on in the school and not just the teachers.
I'm a teacher and my school tried to implement a "no headphones or earbuds" policy. Students couldn't even have them in the hallways. Kids would sneak them in and teachers wouldn't enforce it after the 2nd week of school. Eventually, they dropped the rule
Just a public reminder to not listen to rules like this they are meant to be broken
Have fun getting a new job after being written up then.
Rules exist for various reasons. And sometimes we discover they cause more trouble than they were worth.
thank you random guy on The UA-cam comment section!! i followed your advice and got promoted to Customer at my job ^-^
The store I worked at expects you to clock in 10 mins before shift, but you only start getting paid at the official start of your shift. They also have a habit of waiting until you clock out before asking to speak to you. They always say they'll edit your hours to include the time you stayed to talk but 9 times out of 10 they forget.
about those school backpack rules, i have similarly bad experiences, though not exactly because of a school rule.
in elementary school we had usually six different classes, with a thick-ish book, a notebook and a folder for each, in addition to the other necessities.
as you can imagine those things weight adds up to uncomfortable levels.
we once weighted my full backpack and it got to nearly 10kg.
imagine a six year old child wearing this nearly a third of their body weight all the way to and from our school, which was ontop of a small hill!
needless to say, they added lockers for the book in the school building at some point.
I work at a place that uses buzzers to inform customers their order was ready. About 6 months ago, one of the higher ups decided they didn't want to have us use the buzzers anymore for a more "personal experience with the guests." Since my workplace often was a person short (at minimum), this meant we needed to hire a third person to help us with it. It was fine for the slower parts of the shifts, but it ended up making rushes longer, as one of the two people on register had to help the lobby person with carrying orders, effectively doubling our wait time to order. Expo person would take up the other register for a bit, but you know the consequence of that. After about a couple months, our boss decided to bring back the buzzers and take the reaming from the higher ups. Didn't have to abandon the buzzers since.
Ripley's aquarium worker here. I get yelled at for both working over 1-10 mins after work was supposed to end (I'm under 18 because they hire 14-17 year-olds) and if I sit in the back for 20-30 mins before it's time to leave work. I like to clock out at the exact hour because of the first rule.
For school bells, the one i remember was one of my primary schools. We had music instead of bells, maybe 30seconds long
Worked on a youth centre candy store. In an attempt to ensure the kids didn’t spend all of their allowance they introduced a £0.50 per visit limit with the only exception was if they wanted something that costed more (0.65 was the most something costed.)
Well on the one hand it kept the line constantly moving but the kids wised up that they could go to the back of the line and have enough time pass to get served when they got to the front again enough time had passed. Needless to say kids would spend more time waiting to buy candy rather than doing anything else there.
This was summer vacation, when they went back to school the rule was lifted. They later introduced one where they couldn’t buy more than three of something. They saw greater success.
In 2008 Orange County school board in Florida had this brilliant idea of flipping high school and middle school school hours to conserve power in high schools during the wee hours. They soon realize they’re not actually saving much power because when high schools don’t have to power the lights at 6:30am the middle schools would. As the cherry on top it threw the entire county in chaos since middle schoolers are oversleeping left and right and high schoolers complained they didn’t have enough time for after school activities and most importantly the football game preps. After pissing off the entire county the school board reversed that in 2009… when I was actually heading into my freshman year. The class of 2013 became known as the losers who had to start their days a full year early than everyone else. Good times.
My work got rid of chairs because someone in upper managment thought we looked more productive standing. The work stations were waist high to short people, and multiple people were injured on day one from the awkward haunched posistion and the chairs were returned. Almost a year later, they implimented the same descision, but slightly different and found unrelated reasions to fire everyone who was injured the first time around. One guy was fired for not smiling enough. I no longer workat that company
When I was in middle school we had the no back pack rule, plus we weren't allowed to go to the locker. And the books were very heavy. 12:18 is exactly what happened to me.
Eesh, sounds like a hassle. Here in South Africa, we did need backpacks because lockers aren't a thing here, but my mom doesn't like schools because of how heavy our stuff is, claiming that when we walked to school and she carried my bag, it was even a bit heavy for her. And that was in 1st grade-
Now I'm unfortunately stuck with mild back pain. For different reasons though, but I'm glad I started homeschooling in 5th grade cuz during the first few months of the year, my maths teacher kinda sucked.
@galacticlezbian my urgent school doesn't have lockers, but we also have laptops and no books so it's better. At least in middle school my mother got me rolling back packs to avoid back pain.
Funny thing about my grandfather: During Desert Storm, he was a mechanic for the A-10 Warthogs. One thing about him is that he was known to just about have the whole plane taken apart to find stress and cracks in the plane bodies. This earned him the nickname the "Crackmaster." Today it is part of his email address. He even got a plaque and some goodies with "Crackmaster" engraved onto them.
PS During his last year he was going to be on the field fixing planes but one of the guys told him that he knew what Papa would do. So instead of being on the field he was assigned to train the next group of guys.
Long story short, my catholic school banned long haired boys as well as expelled any long haired boys that were already in the school. The ban lasted for about a month until one of the parents argued with the head master saying that the school revolves around a long haired male individual. The ban was lifted shortly after and all of the long haired boys who were previously expelled were let back in.
Good work using there own cult beliefs against them
That amount of destruction is both hilarious and makes me think where the fuck was the teacher, how did they not hear that noise?
“You never know which rules are worthwhile unless you break a few.”
- My Mother
I was in 9th grade when the original Gameboy came out. I had that thing less than a month before I felt it was essential for me to have it in school every day...
Small town, one high school. We have an open campus (kids can leave for lunch.) Among irate students and parents were also restaurant owners who make the bulk of the income from these students and parents. It didn't take long to reverse the decision.
10:33 I grew up in the time kids were just starting to get smartphones. I got around those rules simply by not having a phone and instead bringing my 3DS XL, all the teachers didn't mind as long as I wasn't using it in the middle of class.
Am I the only one who thinks that bosses who use that whole "You got time to lean, you got time to clean" on employees who do their jobs should be forced to quit?
One time in middle school the school administration put in place the rule that students were prohibited from using the bathroom during the first and last ten minutes of class saying it was "so the kids won't miss instructions" and this one time I just got back from having lunch and I drank a bunch of water during a chugging competition so by the time class started I really needed to go, I raised my hand and asked the teacher to go to the bathroom (she said no, of course) so i stood up and started to walk to the door. She started screaming at me but I just ignored her because I was on the verge of peeing myself. I speed-walked to the bathroom and did my business, when I got back to my class she was yelling at me for needing to go pee while she was teaching. I just looked at her, dumbfounded. She ended up sending me to the principals office and she ended up being fired. Lol 😂
A) it is REALLY interesting how fitting your voice fits your appearance, lol, and B) the rule was that there was no sharpie on the walls. I began using pencils, instead. No one noticed, and I visited that school recently (they were running a public event, and this school is in my neighborhood). My mark is still left on that school. :) it wasn’t anything big, they were just small Scorpio symbols, since that’s how my signature is.
If I was in one of those schools that ban backpacks, I would just quietly follow the rule. Keep my books in my locker. Walk between classes. If I'm late, I'm late. If they complain, just tell them that running in halls is against the rules (honestly, it probably is) and that there's no way I can walk between between classes and make it on time when I have to stop at my locker every time. But that's just me.
*In England we don't even have lockers, we carry our stuff in our bags everywhere. That kind of rule could never fly*
@@Jahito_EBT I agree with you- also from England
It was technically the rule in my middleschool and only a few stickler teachers enforced it. I preferred to just carry around everything since I was a chubby kid and the halls were usually choked with a bunch of kids just standing around and talking and it was especially hard to navigate since there were many diffrent buildings so you could have one class near your locker but your next one was 4 buildings away.I continued to get threatened with in house suspension by one teacher who didn't want the bags in her class and got written up a few times. I tried using the locker but it would usually make me late/show up without everything in my mad dash to get to class. It was a no won situation for me.😩
As a fire fighter I will say most fire dpet takes fire code very seriously so that teacher would've also had to face a few firemen
During one of those fitness gram things i was tested on push ups one year. They were using this weird device to count push ups (basically a switch you hit with your chest). It had two little pads attached that couldnt spread more than like a medium laptops width. Issue was i have long ass arms. I would basically have to touch the middle of my upper arm with the same arm's hand to get down that low with my hands on those pads. The teacher would not allow me to spread my hands further so i can do proper pushups for my body. I only got one before i gave up. I'm not strong i can probably get 5 maybe 10 but thats pushing it but i can definitely do more than one
Oh my gosh, I have some.
We utilized the wanker to get around the rules against offensive language when I was in sixth grade (1998-99). We had learned a few new languages before the conclusion of the school year.
While I was in middle school, there was an attempt to ban bottles due to a fall concern. Instructors just brought in water coolers and cups in class so that kids did not have to constantly go to the fountains. Ice was still permitted, which melts into water, creating a fall danger.
In high school, however, it was war. (2001 til 2005)
At the time, only seniors were permitted to dress up for Halloween. In my freshman year, I cosplayed as one of the A*Teens because there were no rules about what might be considered a costume. There had a rule against bandanas, but not against durags. As a result, several of my classmates are wearing them. Of course, they had sweeps to deal with tardiness. Cue two black students in my class tolling both the English and History teachers by taking their classes to get around the system.
There was no control over names for a long time. For Halloween 2002, my sophomore year, my group of misfits plotted and pulled off a Bart Simpson intercom prank. I tricked the school into thinking Sara Lumholdt was a student. Another team joins in, adding names to the student rooster like Biggus Dickus and Incontinentia Buttocks. When it comes to school computers, we identified a way that allows us to bypass the controls and obtain cheat codes and game manuals.
During the spirit weeks, one student showed up wearing a sleeveless shirt, boxers, socks, and slippers. Nipples were not to be seen. The kid got away with it since it fits the dress code.
I have a few more but that's some of the few I had on my mind.
6:16 my school doesn't have bells, and things work just fine. Everyone is on "cell phone time" so things are synchronized. If someone needs a bell, that teacher can set an alarm on her phone. I have one to remind me when to send my students to lunch, but that's all I need.
What is really appreciated is when the PA system is only used for emergencies. When a student is needed up front, It's a hassle for the front office to look up the student, find what class the student should be at that time, then look up the classroom number and call that number. It's much easier to broadcast over the PA system. But what happens is every 20 minutes,, class is interrupted with "Billy, please report to the office. Billy, please report to the office." I'd explain to my class that Billy is *so important* that it's worth interrupting my class to tell everyone about his every move. Fortunately, my school telephones the classroom. I'm only interrupted if it's one of my students.
In year 7 (about 11 years old), we had a girl pass out on sports day from heat stroke (I live in sweden and it was the hottest day of the year). They continued with sports day after she was taken away in an ambulance, 3 more kids required urgent medical care after that day, they didnt stop sports day becauae they "didnt want the other kids to miss out" most of us werw scared of dying. Most parents complained
I did a temp job for neiman marcus. Clothes cam off of truck, you had to change the the hangers, price the items and put plastic on it . 10 hours days no talking. I was so glad when the moved me upstairs to the shoe dept. Was able to talk with the ladies
It's only recently I realized just how liberal the dress code was at my high school. Nobody batted an eye at booty shorts. My school didn't allow any electronics too. Took until a year after my 2013 graduation for them to be allowed and even then only during lunch
My work schedule is posted right next to where I work, we can check it easily, sweet setup.
Story 2: I understand a teacher thinking, "If some kids escape a fire with bags and others don't that's not fair." but that extreme. Geez!
story 12. As a teenager, I want to say all of my peers can last almost an hour without a phone, and as someone who is addicted to technology, I want to say those teens are Maniacal. All Teens in my school didn't even act like this without their, I hope.
Maniacal - someone who is behaving in a crazy, wild, or uncontrollable manner.
Maniacal - an extreme addiction to an object, substance, or activity.
Story 3 - Also, the F2 key is your friend in these kinds of situations. Or you could just bring home on a device like a USB stick and then rename it at home and then bring it back with the new filename.
7:02 "Let's make a Freeway!!" 😬😬😬🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Oblivion, made with "Good" "Intentions" !! "Good Idea! This'll Screw Us Up For Life!"
For the cellphone thing in story 12, sounds like the teenagers were going through withdrawal from phone addiction
Love your content Mr. Facts!!! Oh, and your mustache of course. Keep up the good work.
I was expecting that programming story to end with someone making an important file for the school renamed to Pokémon to prove a point.
Imagine the students renaming the server files. They probably have backup files, but it might take them a while to figure why the whole school went dark/offline
When I heard the fourth story, I was too European to understand why backpacks should be banned in schools. I’m glad that we don’t have to live with these problems.
I'm glad I don't live on a continent where it's apparently a requirement to bash other whole nations.
I don't personally know anyone who has been in a school shooting. I do personally know people who hated living in Europe.
Well your schools actually care about a student’s mental health
When I was in 8th grade a rule was passed that backpacks weren’t allowed in the classroom and you’d be given ISS if you were caught with your backpack during the period that rule was quickly rescinded after my friend had an asthma attack and her parents threatened to sue the school district for negligence
Do not mess with your enlisted folks or else bedrolling will make a comeback
My old boss got pissie at me for clocking in 15 minutes early
Story 23 is not the flex they think it is.
My middle school had a no backpacks in the classroom rule.
Their excuse was that teachers could trip walking down the rows of desks. I thought that excuse was stupid because piles of notebooks, binders, and loose papers would be much easier to trip on, more of a fire hazard, and just as capable of fitting under the seats compared to backpacks.
There were lots of "bookdrops" on staircases. Having a zippered binder helped (especially if it had a handle or strap) but a lot of people had a bunch of loose papers so when it was slapped out of their hands it made a big mess.
Not sure if they've changed the rule.
In my school when Covid hit we all had to use mask of course but this made a problem. If kids couldn’t read the teachers or each other’s faces they didn’t know what emotions they were having leading to the years after Covid where they couldn’t tell if someone was angry or sad or happy. This is probably why the fourth grade were horrible. They got so bad that one of the nicest pre k teachers temper went insane. She screamed at them like crazy and me and another student rushed out of there instead of waiting to see what would happen. She made a lot of them cry and my other classmates were late because of her. That just goes to show how annoying kids can be when not able to tell what other kids were feeling. I’m glad it’s summer now. One time I met this really annoying fourth grader. We asked him what he was doing and he said saving lizards. He picked it up and pulled out what he claimed was a parasite and let the lizard go. He did this with about to more lizards. When my mom was driving me home I told her about this and she freaked out. She called one of the head staff at are school( she knows them because she’s on of them) and told them about this. Turns out the kid was dissecting them. Needless to say he was in big trouble. Another time me and my friend were running across the field to him because he was trading candy. While I was running over I kicked a kickball over there. When I got over there I found out the kickball had landed smack in his head and it was going really fast. He was on the ground crying like a baby. Don’t feel bad for him though . He deserved it. This is why I believe karma is real. Thankfully he a lot nicer now.
My middle school implemented uniforms when I was in 8th grade. It was supposed to cut down on bullying but all it did was make the insults more personal and physical. It also became easier to spot when someone wore the same clothes which, as kids, was considered to be funny. They stopped after 2 years.
TBF the lack of bells makes a little sense because in collage and university there were no bells and we didn’t have problems with lateness or anything we had two sites and sometimes our lessons were split between the two sites it took 15 mins to walk between the sites and we still had minimal problems with late ness except when i got lost down by the river and ended up in Shiplake but I only did that once.
Having students admit things that they wouldn't say to their parents will inevitably tell the school to tell the parents what they said. That is such a trap to get them in trouble.
9:48 I'm gonna mention this RIGHT NOW!! School Rules vs Emergencies. The next call could be urgent that the designated driver is hospitalized, and that the student needs to see him/her, Barring school's rule.
I mean, the no bags on floor makes sense. Especially if, where I work, the classroom is darkened because we're using a projector. You don't want to deal with lively kids slipping and cracking skulls open.
I swear so many of the school rules in these videos are just meant as a show of authority.
9:23 Try telling that to flight attendants. Truckers, too. And many other industries, I'm sure.
Probably Laughed way to hard at that pun at 6:52 lol
11:00 idk, my dad when he was young once had a fun idea to light some gasoline on fire and burned off the siding of one of the walls of his house. He also drove a dirt bike off a cliff.
At my school we also aren't allowed to carry backpacks to class so that ends up with me being forced to carry stuff that probably weighs more than me
honestly I thought story 3 was gonna end with someone sneaking into a teacher or admin's office and renaming an important file to have the word 'pokemon' in the name and cause a genuine disruption to school functions
My school has airport level security in order to get in, large freaking lines to get into the building, every. Single. Day. Teachers would then get mad at students for being late when in reality the only way to get on time was to show up half an hour early, hell no. And, to top it off, we couldn’t carry backpacks either, even with all the security students have to go through to make sure there were no guns (or metal forks) we still couldn’t carry backpacks, why? You already confirmed we don’t have weapons, they even had a machine that would scan you. And…..the backpacks rules were even worse because you could only visit your locker before first period, before lunch, after lunch, and at the end of school. If you were caught going to your locker between classes you would be sent to the detention room. And…to put it into even more of a perspective of how weird our rules were our school doesn’t have bells, in our school when the teacher says you leave, you leave, if the teacher looses track of time and sends you to your next class late, you’ll still get marked tardy, if a teacher tells you you can go to your next class after you finish one last assignment, you’ll still be marked tardy. F*ck public schools.
The fitness gram pacer test one unlocked a memory for me
The fitness gram pacer test is a multistage aerobic capacity...
Forgot the rest lol
Middle School Tried banning Dyed Hair... So you could expect how they were when every single person in that school came with dyed hair.
Best damn Silent protest we ever had.
Two weeks later they retracted the rule.
I personally think all schools should have mini lockers in each classroom and should keep their books for that class and school supplies in them if they want to make the no back pack rule work...mini locker version of the old cubby hole system from pre k and kindergarten 😊
Omg my school did the 'no bell' thing and it worked.... Everyone respected the timetables including the teachers.
I think we only had the bell(a small single ring) for the end of breaktime, but even that was later removed.
Now that I think about it my school has experimented a lot with us.. we even had freedom days one year, three days where no rules applied to anyone. Plp went crazy but also all the couples got outed.
Ps: we were a boarding school.
No one had cellphones when I was in school.
Only four classes per day, so not too many books to carry. Only two classes worth at a time since everyone had time to go to their lockers during lunch.
When my school banned backpacks I carried em anyway. When the smart kid who never gets in trouble at school suddenly gets saturday detention EVERY WEEK the higher ups quickly take notice. That rule got revoked.
Edit: I forgot to mention my school also made a rule where you could only have the books needed for THAT class in the classroom. They also for unknown reasons INSISTED classes MUST be as far apart as possible.
The school I technically had that backpack rule but even they knew visiting a locker within five minutes would be an ass pain even if you knew the code to unlock it so it wasn't enforced at all. Good thing too because I had to carry two large hardback textbooks AND my assigned laptop my graduation year and IDK if I'd fair any better than the person with a screwed up spine that originally mentioned it.
Your face! Omg Hi! It's so weird to see you and not just listen to you ❤ Love it ❤
My grammar school required that we all had a hall pass. Some jag hole decided to throw the classroom hallpass into the lights and it got stuck there. That hall pass rule faded a way after a while. Another time,my grammar school had to have students have a permission note or permission slip to hang out in the school playground after school hours. I was hanging out after school. My then controlfreak teacher was driving home. He stopped his car and told me and another kid to go home. Judas priest.
11:13 I don't think that writing smut FanFiction during free time in *class* is better then phones
(Saying this bc of my friend that does 😹)
My company boasts about how we work 7.95 hours rather than 8 hours a day for the employees. After about one to two days working it is obvious that work often requires you to stay a few minutes late each day at least. The hours are so the employees never get overtime. 🤦♀️and now our calls are recorded but they just added recording our screens. I got reprimanded for the order I did stuff in. Even though all my numbers are great. Who cares what order it’s in?!
So on the "No phones in school rule" I don't think it was intentional destruction but a number of incidents of students screwing around with things like paper wasps and such which caused that sort of damage. Though I suspect that "destroyed marker" may have been the culprit.
*insert cartoon multiple ricochet sequence of said marker after it's fired from about 6 rubber bands"
From experience, you can have a school work just fine with no bells
There is a place in York Pa called Assurant that does the whole cell phone refurbish thing. I know a few people who have worked there.
Just search the bags thoroughly before school starts
Ketchup and Mustard counted as fruit and vegetables as part of their meal requirements that they were obligated to provide...When parents found out, they ripped the School Board apart for it. I think they were trying to save on money.
Canada passed a law about banning cellphones in class, if you get caught with your phone on you in class you can get fined
Books used to B wrapped in leather belts for transport, could bring that back.
My current school doesn't have an intercom system, so we don't have any bells. However, the current state I'm in hives us laptops, so we just keep track of the time.
props to the 70,80,and 90, kids who grew up without cellphones and didn't mass destroy stuff lol
On the ‘sending people back into a burning building to put down their bag’, how do you misunderstand the rule that poorly?
The rule is ok, having the students leave their stuff behind to get to safety easier, but how do you misunderstand that bad?
Ok I'm going to admit for the longest time I thought Mainly Facts and Mostly Facts were the same channel and I felt like I was going crazy from the voice changing all the time.
2 stories in, and we already have attempted murder
Zero tolerance was the start of zero thinking
Class rooms should just have lockers in the back of the classes and desks with ample storage might sound dumb but might solve the problem..
For Story 3, IT also forgot that you can just press F2 on a file to rename it. Though, to be fair, IT did an incredibly stupid thing disabling the right click menu in the first place.
middle school 8th grade (year 9)
so our principle said NO PHONES and if you were found with said phone they would take it so i was able to get students to listen to me and i told all of the students in that school to grab the classroom phones and take them home and give it back at the end of the year
Story 24: Usually, mandatory classes to make you better citizens are classes like "History," "Government," and "Social Studies." I have no idea what this non-sense was, but it wasn't helpful.
10:50 i always thought mass destruction was the default before phones came around?
Face reveal! Wow just what I thought you’d look like!
My school is only allowed to fill our water bottles are too big... Most of us have hydro flasks (in my school it is the common size) and half is not much. ITS JUNE. Anyway i just ask to fill up my bottle, i either do it fully eitherway or i ask to fill it up twice
Classic story due to grafiti the school closed one of the 2 boys rooms (small school) rumor says it was lifted cause someone had an accident cause they had to go literally to the other side of the building.
Wait wait wait, the 15 minute rule was REAL somewhere?! I assumed that was just a running gag in my highschool!
Yeap lol, I did this in high school and it worked for the other students but since that class was my aunts class I didn't get to skip it. She draged me in the class while the others went to the gym to play dodge ball
Story 12: cause a riot with a phone ban lol
My school did mot want the safety board involved so they never upheld the more than ... amount of tadries they need to be called for extra inspection on the situation so when they implemented a come in early for detention when you where to late i just never went and they could do nothing about it as the next step would be letting the board know. Terrible because i was late due to needing extra sleep because of abuse so that board would probably helped me but they cared more about appearing like a good school. I had to follow even less rules as i followed the bilingial programme they where using as a showpony
14:00 Not stolen, "tactically acquired"
