[Desi Masala] school answering machine
ANSWERING MACHINE
This is the message that apparently a Secondary School staff in the
Midlands voted
unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine.
This is the actual answering machine message for the school. It came about
because they implemented a policy requiring students and Parents to be
responsible for their children's absences and missing homework.
The school and teachers are now being threatened with legal action by some
parents who want their children's failing marks changed to passing marks -
even though those children were absent 15-30 times during the term and did
not complete enough schoolwork to pass their various key stages.
************
'Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school.
In order to assist you in connecting to the right member of
staff, please listen to all the options before making a selection:
* To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1
* To make excuses for why your child did not do his/her work - Press 2
* To complain about what we do - Press 3
* To swear at staff members - Press 4
* To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your
Newsletter and several letters posted to you - Press 5
* If you want us to bring up your child - Press 6
* If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone - Press 7
* To request another teacher, for the third time this year - Press 8
* To complain about bus transport - Press 9
* To complain about school lunches - Press 0
LASTLY:
If you realize this is the real world and your child must be
accountable and responsible for his/her own behaviour, class work, homework
and that it's not the teachers' fault for your child's lack of effort: Hang
up and have a really wonderful day!
If you want this in other languages, you must be in the wrong country.
This is England, now piss off.

Prayer is not a spare wheel that you pull out when YOU ARE IN TROUBLE
It is a steering wheel that keeps you on the right path throughout your life
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should
dance....
Never believe what the lines of your hand predict about your future, because
people who don't have hands also have a future... Believe in yourself
You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop
laughing.
