The guy who gave me the chinchilla excuse came in yesterday and admitted that he didn't even know what a chinchilla was and that I wouldn't either. Turns out he wanted to reward his kid for scoring good on a test, so he checked him out of school and they just hung out all day. (He even had his son's teacher call me so I wouldn't think he was making htis one up too) We had a good laugh when he told me that he had followed my instructions to google chinchillas and had seen what they were. After that I fired his butt and told him he had five minutes to clean out his desk.
Of course I'm kidding about the firing part, I wish more parents took that much interest in their kids.
