Lipstick
Posted: 23 Apr 2008, 09:24
According to a news report, a certain school in Billingham, was recently faced with a unique problem.
A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the toilets.
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 caretaker man would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back.
Finally the Head Master decided that something had to be done. He called all the girls to the toilet room and met them there with the caretaker man.
He explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the caretaker who had to clean the mirrors every night.
To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, he asked the caretaker man to show the girls how much effort was required.
He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it into the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.
Priceless!
Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.
There are teachers....and then there are educators!
