I can fix her
I unfortunately have colleagues who describe phone calls even dumber than this one... at 2AM. Some parents just don't think teachers are real people or something, and schools can't or won't stop them.Yep, that's adult life.
For a fun series as this, it's not afraid to at least brush on these shitty topics. Like with the sister ending up in a wheel chair. There aren't easy solutions and I prefer it that way. Suspension of disbelief and all that. For example, I'm already getting thrown off by the principal bitching like this. A teacher's responsibilities do not extend to cleaning up the parent's mess. That scene should never have happened. That's not a teacher's job description and it would be incredibly unprofessional. What if a child had an allergy?
There are certainly people as stupid and entitled as this woman beyond a doubt, but the principal and teacher should know better. They should have immediately stated the school's limitations and available options and left it at that.
I've got an "always on-call" job where I get calls to fix a computer from coworkers at 3am, to drive 30 minutes to work, to plug a multi-outlet into the wall, because that shift's crew couldn't be bothered to look under the desk to see if that was the issue.I unfortunately have colleagues who describe phone calls even dumber than this one... at 2AM.

Anyway I feel for her. Someone get her a long holiday.![]()
It's not her that needs fixing, it's literally everything else.I can fix her
I job shadowed a school IT technician for a day when I was in high school. He had some awesome sysadmin responsibilities and the school network infrastructure was really interesting... but the large amount of work that was "printer not working -> someone unplugged its network cable from the wall ethernet point" was despair-inducing.

At least I get paid a decent amount for being on-call.
that just makes fixing her very easy if you have enough moneyIt's not her that needs fixing, it's literally everything else.
Somehow, that reminds me of that crap our client wants... They have no fucking clue about anything and have the fucking gall to make our lives miserable with their utter incompetence. I already told everyone around me to keep me the fuck away from them, or I would rip them a second one.I unfortunately have colleagues who describe phone calls even dumber than this one... at 2AM.
