So a student comes in yesterday. Her locker (let's call it # 181) is "broken." She asks if she can use the locker right next to it, but it's been assigned. I give her the next available locker number in the section (#251), and tell her to go check it. She calls from the locker room and tells my co-worker that it's also "broken." Can she use #245? No, she can only use the next number in the sequence, they're all assigned (they've been assigned since SEPTEMBER.) Try 253. "Broken." 255? "Broken." Co-worker tells her to find a locker that does work and let us know.
She emails me later that evening:
Is it okay to use locker 237?
I look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your help!
Thanks so much!
+5 points for politeness, -250 for reading comprehension.
This comes to mind.
I've joined
Plinky, because I can always use ideas for something to post. Here's the first writing prompt:
Difference
by
The Wallflowers
Because the chorus opens up with this driving, descending bass line that just screams "convertible on the open road."
Freedom Park
by
Marah
Because the "shimmy-shimmy ko-ko bop" background vocals are infectious.
Edited to add: Well THAT formatting sucks! Sorry y'all.
