Classroom 22 is located across the blacktop, not in one of the main buildings, but in a small portable; it is wheelchair accessible with a ramp leading into the classroom. The desks are grouped into five tables of four to six students, with the teacher's desk in back, and a U-shaped side table (for one on one student/teacher interactions) to the side of the whiteboard. The desk groups are all about three feet…

"Do you like it?" "Yeah." "Are you sure? Just send it back." "No, no. I'm fine...I just don't know why I have a spoon." We both looked at my beverage that arrived at the table in a bowl accompanied by a utensil.

I debated sitting at the only school desk in the room, but it's broken, rusted legs deterred me. I folded my legs under my body, and sunk to the dusty, unkempt ground.

storage closet I was brought back into the sales office and asked to try and fix a discrepancy. Kelly the sales manager in charge of corporate room nights, found a discrepancy in her personal files. Her personal file stated that she had sold 1022 corporate rooms for the month of September, but the main computer file stated that she had sold 1029.
