Update on Code K and Porn In The Printer

Special thanks to everyone who left comments about “Nightmares, Bad Things & Code K” both on-site and off-site. Some of them were hilarious.

Quick update… my district’s crackerjack tech department identified the porn printer perpetrator (don’t ya just love alliteration?), and he will be duly punished and my kiddos have been duly vindicated. I knew the porn printer perpetrator (try saying that fast five times) could not have been one of my students (although there were some naysayingsheswhoshallnotbenamedtypes who insinuated otherwise).

The said porn printer perpetrator (I’m on a roll now) was a student I never, ever had and the crime was committed elsewhere in the school building where my networked printer could be accessed.

The tech guys tracked down the porn printer perpetrator in less than 24 hours. Kudos. Kudos. Kudos. Dance of Joy. Dance of Joy. Dance of Joy.

Now the administrators have the icky task of sorting through the porn for the disciplinary case. Perhaps that task needs to be added to my “Why It Sucks To Be Me (Or You)” List. (And, yes, I do have such a list. Perhaps I will post it soon.)

Tip of the Day… At this point, I believe I am the only person who has ever baked cookies for the tech people and said thank you for their thankless jobs. After all, most of us are frustrated with technology by the time we need the tech guys and aren’t very pleasant or polite (go figure). But I, well, I have found my cookies and niceness (oh, is that really so hard to believe? Jeez) tends to get me a speedy quick response…especially chocolate chip cookies… homemade, not those frozen things… with pecans… ummmmm… well, that, and porn in the printer will get a quick response every time.

Oh my.....I'm glad your situation worked out and you didn't end up on the five o'clock news. It has happened around here. Those techie types do have a thankless job. Perhaps mine deserves a cookie or two as well. :)
