Teachers and Educators, what's the difference?
> > >
>According to a news report, a private school in Washington recently was
>faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning
>to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but
>after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror
>leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night, the maintenance man would
>remove them and the next day, the girls would put them back. Finally the
>principal decided something had to be done. She called all the girls to the
>bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that
>these lip prints were causing a problem for the custodian who had to clean
>the mirrors every night.
> > >
>To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked
the
>maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out
>a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror
>with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.

As a 2nd grade teacher I don't have many "lipstick" problems but this story has made me think of some good ideas for other problems!

LOL - Well that's one way to save yourself some energy LOL.
Maybe I could tell my husband I clean my cake trays with toilet water - and then he won't scarf them down. Well - maybe it will atleast slow him down abit LOL
