Well, let’s see. I have dealt with drunks coming into the schools, homeless people, one drunk dude waved a pair of scissors at a secretary at another school demanding 10NT, a mother who had a bloody towel wrapped around her head because her drunk husband attacked her with a knife, and a guy whacked out on something other than booze looking for his pumpkin seeds.
Now I have some lady outside my school trying to get in so her kids can play with the elevator. She just barged right in and went up and down the elevator. Now she is outside letting her kids run around in the street…what a way to start the week :? Now I gotta stand outside with my “Don’t f**k with me” face on to make sure she doesn’t do anything unnatural.
“No matter how heavily armed your opponent is, you can use the Art of Peace to disarm him (or her). When someone comes in anger, greet him with a smile. That is the highest form of martial art.”
What is up with weirdos coming into schools? I remember things like that happening a couple times when I taught at the late, great, GTE. My favorite is when a pregnant lady came in begging for money for her and her poor future child, when it was so obvious she had a pillow under her shirt.
Strangely, I had an 8 year old girl come up to me and start chatting away in English with me on the MRT yesterday. She said she was an only child because her mother is crazy. Charming little dear she was and I hope her the best with her nutter mom. She was with her father.
I think nutters are attracted to kids and foreigners…and schools have both.
Don’t be surprised if one day you turn on the TV news and you see some big ugly foreigner a’ twirling and a’tossing some dude(s) who came to the wrong school looking for trouble.
