According to a news report, a certain private school
in Victoria recently was 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 principal 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. 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...
