Rants #9
You know what really grinds my gears? The school system that decided that it was ok for construction to be taking place during school hours. What were they thinking? For one thing, the noise is distracting as hell. There I am sitting in class trying to take a test or do my work, yes I do work, and all of a sudden *BAM! CLANG!* the construction workers are hitting the ceiling and what sounds like the pipes and I lose all of my concentration. Then the smell of what I am told is some tar liks stuff. Have you ever smelled it? It is the worst. And its bad enough it smells really bad, but you can taste it also. It makes you want to choke, it does choke you up and makes you sick. You would think the school system of grand PG County, Maryland would know all of this and have the work done during the summer, but no. They are too busy trying to find a new Superintendent since the last one decided to embezzle money. So now, we are pretty much going to have to deal with the smell that chokes you up and the sound that keeps you from concentrating. My advice is to the school system. THINK BEFORE YOU SEND CONSTRUCTION WORKERS TO WORK ON CONSTRUCTION DURING THE SCHOOL DAY. YOU KNOW THE KIDS ARE GOING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE NOISE AND THE SMELL. SO NEXT TIME YOU DECIDE TO DO THIS, USE YOUR BRAINS AND THINK A LITTLE.
