Topic: Donation as a door prize for ADULTS

You teach in a very low-performing district and will be attending a conference this summer. They have door prizes. These are all teachers / admins. Since you are also a published and award-winning author, you offer a complete set of one series--FREE! Do you expect, "Thank you," or, "Can you bring your books to my office so we can review them?" Guess which one I got? I guess I see why the district is struggling --It's being strangled by bureaucracy.

Re: Donation as a door prize for ADULTS

It's everywhere.  There's a story about how an anus proved its importance to the rest of the body by shutting down for a week.  That's how bureaucrats prove they run things.  Praise them and kowtow to their agendas or they will shut you down--and maybe put you in jail, beggar you, or both.
