I had to stop at 4:30 to send a priority envelope that needed delivery confirmation. The line was short when I got there but by the time it was my turn, I think there were 15 people behind me and only ONE LADY working the counter!!!She said her coworker had called in sick FOR THE WEEK!

When I taught seventh grade, it was usually much harder on the parents whose children were leaving elementary and heading to the "big, bad, scary JHS" than on the kids themselves.

), having a locker with a REAL LOCK on it, all the extracurricular activities they could become part of at the JHS, and only having to endure teachers they didn't like for less than an hour a day!!! 
Can you recommend any particular free sites to visit for a good comparison?
