Lipstick is school

[Dot]

>
> According to a news report, a certain private school in Newcastle upon Tyne
> 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 bathroom.
> 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 maintenance man would remove them and the next day the girls
> would put them back.
> Finally the Headmistress decided that something had to be done.
> She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the
> maintenance man.
> She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the
> custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the
> yawns from the little Geordie Princesses).
>
> To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the
> maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required.
> He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned
> the mirror with it.
> Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.

> There are teachers............and then there are educators.
