Did the preacher person... liked some of you better than others? Was it only boys?Something has been aggravating the hell out of me for years.
When I was in elementary school in the mid to late 80’s, I along with a handful of other kids were pulled from class in the early morning to go and have to listen to a sermon each week. It was like 20 minutes or so. The preacher person would read some stuff from the Bible. We'd have to sing before and after the sermon before ending with a prayer. They called it M&M's or something similar sounding. There was only 10-15 of us that had to do it. We weren't the bad kids, so I can't come up with any explanation as to why we were chosen.
Some of the weird songs that I still remember over 35 years ago...

This has been bugging me for years. It's gotten worse lately with no sleep because of lots of bad stuff going on irl here. Anyone have any idea wtf that's about and why they'd pull kids from classes to do such a thing? I can't find anything online about it.
My sister works in an elementary school office and she comes home and vents all the time about how poorly things are run. Things that have to be done when they get back from the summer break (office staff comes back weeks before teachers/students) and of course the idiot parents who all wait until the last day to do their part don't help either.They're doing similar things at schools locally. 3 months to plan and fix things...they change stuff at the last minute and leave many parents/students left scrambling trying to figure out what to do.
She's a cutie pie, I hope she gets better soon.Wife and I have been miserable with covid. Finally on the mend and the baby has it now, of course. I feel so bad for her. Being a parent is amazing but for f***’s sake if anything ever happened to my daughter I don’t know what I’d do.
Thankfully she is in good spirits! So far. View attachment 8254

They don't even hold failing kids back anymore, they just pass them to the next grade so they won't impact their funding. Our public education system is failing a lot of kids as are their parents.I think there were girls too. They had cooties and were gross.
So the entire country is run poorly. School has been in session for over 3 weeks locally, and they still don't have enough bus drivers, or they stopped having bus routes where they've had it since I was a kid.
The people who are making these decisions are just hurting these kids in the long run. I've read that it was partly due to them being under pressure to increase graduation rates and since kids that get held back often don't graduate anyway there was no point in taking up the space in classes for younger students but I don't know how accurate that is.Someone I know is a teacher in another state and he says they’re not allowed to fail kids anymore or even get on to them really about anything. He says he has so many kids that can barely do basic stuff anymore that they should know by that age. Some can’t even read or write. If I remember right he teaches 5th graders.

Was this done because the principal or student board wanted it, or maybe the parents wanted it? Maybe a religious or racial thing, or even a sex thing? Were those who were taken out to do said things all male?Something has been aggravating the hell out of me for years.

I don't know if it is the same all over, but here bus drivers need to have the same CDL license a trucker needs. There's a shortage of those too, so anyone with a CDL isn't going to bother driving a school bus.

Honestly I’ve noticed lately our local schools, bus drivers, city workers, fast food and restaurants are all under staffed and needing people I see signs and posts on social media all the time. Is it more people don’t want to work and lazy as f*** the right spins in my area or people wised up and want better wages.

Today's prices in Sweden;
Gas; $12/gallon
Electricity; $0,70/kwh
Good thing we dismantled most of our nuclear power plants and went for wind turbines and have to buy most of our gas from russia and electricity when there's no wind.
Yeah, we will start production on power plants again it seems... but, yeah.I heard France may restart the nuclear plants. Maybe more will follow.
The weird part though is what is Russian going to do with their supply? Are they stopping production?
Also, I think I heard China is getting some Natural Gas from them and just reselling it because they don't give AF about the Ukraine war.
Thanks! She is over it just fine. Her daddy not so much… I seem to have what they call long covid… smh. Showing symptoms 3 plus weeks after having it. Unable to sleep this whole week. Sigh.
