Chapter 35: Mrs. Book? Promise You Won't Get Mad?

Student: There's no hot water in the parts room.

Mrs. Book: Wash your part in the big sinks in the wash-up area.That sink is plastic so it's safe to use.

               *Mrs. Book makes a trip to the office*

Student: Um. Mrs. Book? How mad would you be if I showed you something you won't like?

Mrs. Book: Do you mean "Smack-you-in-the-back-of-the-head" I won't like it or "You are going to jail" I won't like it?

Student: We can't show you, it's in the men's bathroom.

Mrs. Book: (Yelling into the bathroom) Finish up, I'm coming in! No response.

Mrs. Book: So, EXACTLY what happened in here?

Student: I told him to be careful! Then the brake disk slipped and this happened!

Student: (Pointing to damage with shaking finger....)
