My wife is getting new skills, and doing a mid life career adjustment, and working with special needs kids in schools.
Overheard yesterday one of the disliked male teachers (he's a bully, purposely belittling and marking the males wrong...20 ticks get "18/20, please try harder next time")...uses a whistle to get attention...in a bus..
Playground yesterday, some grade 5/6 kids were talking about their parents' tyre purchase...$1,000 for a set of 4 is about average around here.
He pipes up "I've never spent more than $100 for a tyre in my life.
11 year old boy quips back "but your car's a [removed]"
