This Issue: Pomeloes, Expelling students
Have you ever worked in an office where there was that one kind, old, kookie lady who you would leave some timbits, chocolates, or tirimisue in the kitchen for you hard working peons to unworthily munch on? Well I have, right here right now.
But the chinese are still experiementing with chocolate... their at a stadge where it doesn't taste like the rotting hide of a steer halfway between beef jerky and leather. Lets just say it tastes like butter, that is brown. My brain is too clever to be tricked by such a 'placebo' effect. So anyways, here they don't leave it on the table, they hand it straight to you. Futhermore, their aren't timbits, or tirimisu or chocolate that worthly of the name, but there are pomeloes! Tons of them! Fists full! No miniscule tangerine is the mighty pomelo! standing a hefty 30 cm high, with a similar diameter, they are sure to impress the ladies. Pocket sized fruit are for dorks, now when you come in to your workplace with that rugsack full of pomeloes your sure to be stomping heads and making a statement your co-workers will never forget. Its so big, its hard to even start to peel it. You've got to be committed, even more commited the marriage. Cause once your start, you've got at least a 5 course meal coming Pomelo style! Can't finish? Hand a gargantuan piece to the first person you see. Pay it forward! Its not my problem. A word of caution if you think tossing it in the garbage is a good idea. Its not. You'll get every enviromental nature loving tree hugging, ferret pet owning freak on your case from here to toleto. It is its own eniroment. Behold the Pomelo! Worship the Pomelo! All hail Pomelo!
Now to be serious.
You think Expelling students in NA was easy? All they had to do was bring a weapon to class, or pure sugar in a teachers gasoline tank, or beat the crap out of someone, up to 3 times before something goes down. But here... well a student doen't go to class? Expell him! Well that's a little oversimplification of what happened the other week. I walked into a teachers dorm where one of my good english teacher friends was talking to 2 unsually not happy students. Apparently they have skipped class over and over to an extend where he was ready to send them out, Leave them on the street, hand over their education to the dogs... or in other words expell them. No review, no need to tell the principal, its a teachers decision. You don't like that student? BAM he's gone... Well luckly I got there when I did, cause he asked me what I would do, and well you know me, I like to give mercy, I said if it were me and the student did something worthy of expelling, I would 'suspend them for a shorter period, with them having the opportunity of coming back. ( I mean I'd rather not expell/suspend them in the first place, but seeing where the possible outcomes of this situation would be, I went with the former. ) I talked with him today, to find out that he did reduce their sentence from them never being able to come back, to 'come back in a month'. Phew...
