Trench Warfare

I was 16 when I read a quote in an Aspen newspaper describing school funds:



School finance is like a Russian novel. Long, boring and in the end, everyone dies.




Exactement, lady.


This is my employment situation analogized by a trip to the supermarket. In this analogy, I am the vendor, i.e., I am providing services. The school is the consumer who hired me under the premise that I would be paid a certain amount.

Vendor: Your total for the month comes to $3,000
Consumer: Whoops. I only have $1,200.

Hello Miami-Dade County Public Schools "System" (System, implying organized interacting entities). You're cyber-dead to me.
