And You Thought Eczema Was Bad
So this jerkoff friend of mine in (this is where you dust off your Pace Picante Sauce accent) New York City sent me a great link about the best bus monitor ever. The title of the piece is, brace yourself, Mointor Used Fists of Fury to Punish Children. I needn't say more, but I have to attach this from the piece just in case you're tool lazy to click the link. They saved the best for last, though I also love #5 . . .
New York City Department of Education records of 2006 and 2005 investigations show dozens of substantiated cases of rude, nasty and careless behavior by school bus drivers and monitors:
1. Monitor sits on elementary schoolkids when they misbehave
2. Driver urinates on the sidewalk in front of a bus full of children
3. Driver calls one student a "retarded Jamaican," another a "retarded Puerto Rican," makes fun of third student's weight, telling him he has "the biggest forehead and double chin in the world"
4. Driver gets lost for five hours on way to the Bronx Zoo, leading to cancellation of the outing
5. Driver falls asleep, then tests positive for cocaine
6. Driver tries to steal student's coat during field trip
7. Driver and monitor take photos of children showing their underwear
8. Driver oversleeps, so he picks up his students with his own car, until the bus company brings him his bus
9. Driver screams epithets into a cell phone while driving
10. Driver leaves idling bus full of children unattended, allowing an elementary schoolboy to rev the engine
11. Driver offers elementary school kids cigarettes
12. Monitor punches, pins to the floor and curses at elementary school student, then tells him: "I will murder you."
