Blood Sucker



At a high-school faculty meeting midway through the school year, the principal had presented an agonizing list of our sins, failures, flaws and transgressions, and we were all feeling rather tense. Then the principal announced that the science-club project would be a blood drive, and that in order to promote faculty participation he would donate the first pint of blood. The meeting burst into laughter when a voice from the back of the room demanded anxiously, "Whose?"

LOL...I mean...OUCH!

Sounds like the principal from the school I just left. He's new, and he's new to our school. He is, well, less than desired. Oh, he's not an ass, he simply has absolutely zero personal skills. The guy can manage but damn does he need a front man.

Your story reminded me of the final meeting I went to before leaving the school. Our principal announced he'd be teaching one section of Social Studies so that the teachers in that department didn't have giant classes or auxiliary classes.

He got huge applauses. But, then we found out he's teaching the HONORS section...go figure.
