tl;dr
one of my students....this is crazy
so I taught big sis and know mom and dad pretty well
like 3 weeks ago, they decide to go to Vero Beach for a week....he's gonna miss school....his girlfriend is goin with them...idgaf as long as he gets his work done
he was sposed to be back 2 weeks ago, but his mom called up there and told me he'd prolly be out another week bc he got crotch critters at the beach
but his gf didn't get them hahahaha
the mother does not share this info with the office and she swore me to secrecy, so I avoid eye contact with his gf all that week and don't tell the other teachers anything because his mom would have told em if she'd wanted them to know
so he was out all last week...and as long as he gets his work done, everything's fine
his mom called me Monday afternoon....this week both he and his gf have mono
sometimes the script writes itself

After a short conversation with a few people I worked with (but not for) 2 years ago, they have made me an offer of employment. Current company has been good to me but have merged (been bought out) with another company and has/is becoming extremely corporate. Confident current company will counter the offer to keep me. Have prayed, talked it over the fam, and still not sure what to do. Waiting and hoping for a "gut feeling". Tough decision for sure.

Quite a few have left and more are looking to leave due to a shift from a "family culture" to "we're looking to purchase 8 companies per year throughout the Southeastern US". Management seems to be more stressed lately as well. Definitely things to consider and think about going forward. One good thing, is the new offer isn't in a rush to hire for a couple more months.

Me too, but it was unsettling they also made sounds in the dark like aliens. I used to work at a nature center and I know the normal chittering sounds they normally make. This was really odd at literally sounded like a special effect from a horror movie. it's like they had all come up and said "Hey watch this.....let's F with the humans". In any case I found they had made a home in the abandoned shed on edge of property and tore it down haven't seen em since.

I hope so. None of them spoke english and so trying to ask questions was futile. The only guy who even tried to talk to me was able to ask "your house?" I said yes. He said mi english no bueno then started laughing. We are supposed to meet with the installations manager at the house this week. Should be fun. I honestly have no idea how they will fix this. I have never done siding nor have I ever watched it being installed. I just know it looks sad. They did a fantastic job on the windows though.
