High school adds cardboard students to maintain normal feeling of oversized classes
August 24, 2020From The Onion.
SAVANNAH, GA—Emphasizing that the cutouts would create the illusion that learning facilities were just as cramped as the year before, representatives from Savannah High School confirmed Friday that cardboard students had been added between distanced desks to maintain a normal feeling of oversized classes.
“Although Covid-19 has brought many challenges to reopening our schools, these cardboard figures will help not just students but also teachers feel just as flustered and overextended as usual,” said school principal Dr. Jeremy Lester, adding that numerous pupil printouts would be placed throughout the school’s classrooms, halls, and bathrooms, which students would then compete with for textbooks, school supplies, and locker space.
“While this year will certainly be an adjustment for everyone, these 1,500 custom-designed stand-ins will make it just as difficult for students to fight for attention from their principal, coaches, and support staff. As such, each classroom’s budget has been severely limited to account for the printing and lamination for each new paper student.”
At press time, the Lester told reporters that the early success of the program had inspired him to replace several teachers with cardboard cutouts.

August 14, 2020A young man, fresh out of college, reported for his first day of work at a grocery store.
The manager greeted him with a smile and a handshake, then handed him a broom and said, “Your first job will be to sweep out the stockroom.”
“But I’m a college graduate,” protested the young man.
“Oh, I’m so sorry,” said the manager.  “I had no idea. Here, give me the broom, and I’ll show you how it’s done.”

A college student told his professor that he would have to miss a scheduled exam because of a funeral. The professor expressed his sympathy, and told the student he could take it the following week.
But the next week the student once again missed the exam, due to another funeral. The professor told him he would have to take it the following week.
“I’ll take it next week if no one dies,” said the student.
“How is it that so many people you know have died in such a short time?” asked the professor.
“I don’t know any of these people,” said the student. “But I’m the only gravedigger in town.”

The dean of admissions at an agricultural college was interviewing a prospective student.
“What made you choose farming as a career?” asked the dean.
“I dream of making a million dollars in farming, just like my father,” replied the student.
“Your father made a million dollars in farming?” said the dean.
“No,” said the student. “But he always dreamed of it.”
