The best quote: Commenting on the incident, Baltimore County police spokesman Bill Toohey told the Sun: "It's a sign that we're all a little nervous in the post-9/11 world."



rigggggghtttttttt.....

 

I must have missed the joke. NCLB?... no child left behind?

 

No time to teach the sales tots in school what our currency actually is...have to teach to pass the standards... hence NCLB

 

IC! Similar to the 'math' thread.

 

Yup, quite sad. Did you hear me say a while back we hired a high school sales tot and he could not count change in his head. He seriously could not make change from a $7.49 sale from $8.00 We are old school no automatic register..he went to add/subtract it on an adding machine...I told him thats not gonna work!! you need this skill! He looked at me like I had 3 heads

Needless to say he DOES NOT work here anymore.

 

I do recall that. [serious]I don't know if this problem will be repaired. The consequenses for the US industrial machine are dire.[/serious]

Sounds right to me.

 

 

It's ok, we'll just offshore everything to India.
