Teacher: Cruz, you can't use your phone in class. Cruz: But this is how Rayna is attending school today! Teacher: Well... uh... it's against the rules for two students to use one desk.
Typical response to a non thinking teacher/administrator and the zero tolerance rules. He should be thankful that there is a resourceful student in his class.
TrapperJohn: I have yet to see a professional union use a work-to-rule tactic except to prevent a strike. Work-to-rule is usually the result of bad rules and no good-faith negotiations from management. In my job steward days, I recommended a strike (the threat worked), but never a work-to-rule which only hurts the public. Anyone who knows unions from the inside (I was third of three generations of union office-holders) knows management lackeys when they read one.

I’m surprised that that teacher allows her the rover. Telepresence might be a difficult concept for him
