Today was a hair and uniform check at the high school. It's a lot like a shake-down at a prison. In the morning there are about 30 teachers lined up at the entrance gate sizing up the students and chewing them out for being late. The bathrooms look like someone skinned a bear as the students hurry to cut or shave off their hair completely to pass inspection.
A bunch of my 1st year students were complaining during class about not being able to grow cool hairstyles because of the monthly checks. I told him that I never had any rules at my school, but maybe they just want long hair cuz they can't have it. One boy said, "Most of us are gonna join a company right after school, and we'll always have to have short hair." I never really thought of it that way. He was right though.
But my JTE explained that if the kids have crazy hair that people will think the kids are bad at that school and no companies will hire those students. Must be tough... well at least they're allowed to sleep all day...
inspection time!
time for a pat down.
"dude... how many times do i have to tell you?? NO mullets!!!"
