Couldn't call this a Friday Funny, it is way beyond that. Who writes this stuff anyway? I have given this quite a bit of thought, and I believe it is the result of the public school systems "dumbing down of America."
Would this article title have made sense if it said 17 employees killed in shooting spree at the morgue? Well, yes. The way it is written it sounds like the already dead were the ones shot.
Schools do not teach basic skills any more. My granddaughter did not learn to make change properly until she went to work as a waitress while still in high school. Her employer was the one who taught her. Young people now depend on computerized cash registers to do the work for them. If the computer is down forget getting out of the store until it is fixed. A pencil and piece of paper are foreign objects to young cashiers. Ask me how I know this.....
Remembering the good ol' days when we learned the 3 R's in school: Reading, (W)riting, and
(A)rithmetic.
