Green side up! Green side up!

A group of dignitaries were touring Double Eagle Elementary
School
in the Northeast Heights. As they went from room to
room, Winston Brooks would go to the window,
stick his head out, and yell;

Green side up!, green side up!.

When asked why he was doing this, he explained;
"APS M&O is on the playground laying sod."

They managed to lay the sod incorrectly anyway, link,
and now taxpayers are out another $39K, more than enough
money to hire two, maybe three EAs for an entire year.

OK, so M&O workers are not on top of the rocket science
involved in laying sod. But what about their supervisor, and his,
the APS Executive Director of Sod for Elementary Schools,
who makes at least $105K per year, probably more.

Another $39K wasted by the leadership of the APS and their
steadfast refusal to provide honest accountability to meaningful
standards of competence, for any APS senior administrator, ever.

So red-necked style Winston wants to yell commands out a window in front of people he's trying to impress with a school tour? How low-brow!
Winston! Idiot! Here's a shout out to you: You represent a part of New Mexico now. Next time you want to shove orders down some peon's gullet, simply dismiss yourself to talk to their supervisor, or wait a few minutes to do so! Or call on your cell!
Is it appropriate to yell at children in front of other children and point their flaws and mistakes out? No!
I agree with Ched 100%, especially now. We must role model courtesy and professional conduct, and respect from highest level to lowest level.
Why do you have to act like such a rube Winston?
