What’s going on with teachers today? Actually, not even teachers– I’ve been seeing news like this all too often. Basically, you’ve got a very well-paid government employee who steals stuff. I mean– they’re not poor. Maybe I’m so old-fashioned– I believe poor people steal because they are in want. It shocks me when rich people steal. They steal when they don’t have to steal! What the heck? Why would they do that?? Maybe they’re training for jobs as politicians, or jobs in sales??
Anyway, my remarks are due to this news story I saw today:
Auburn Police say a 3rd grade teacher at Genesee Elementary School would have students purchase lunch for him on their school lunch accounts, and he had no intention of paying them back.
Teacher ****** has been charged with three counts of petit larceny and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Auburn Police say a parent notified the Auburn School District officials last week after noticing unauthorized charges on their child’s school lunch account. School Resource Officers then conducted an investigation, and determined that [teacher] was having students purchase the lunches on their school accounts. “He would send them down to use their four digit identification code, get a lunch, punch that in and then bring that back to his class for his consumption knowing that he had no intention of paying anyone for the lunch, and in return he would allow the kids to stay in his class and use the computer,” said Auburn Police…
You know, I kinda feel for this teacher. I’m sure he didn’t “steal” because he couldn’t afford lunches. But maybe his wife has him on a diet and the poor guy is starved.
And the charge of “endangering the welfare of a child” is a little overbearing, wouldn’t you think?! Law enforcement just loves to throw “endangering the welfare of a child” around when they arrest people. Ridiculous. Kids not eating a lunch is NOT “endangering the welfare of a child”! Idjits. However, the teach did let kids on the computer. Maybe that’s what they mean. Or maybe it’s just because the children attend government schools. NOW THAT’S “endangering the welfare of a child”!
