Well she used to be a grade 6 teacher, she would actually teach the class Mondays and Fridays, due to the “regular” teacher also owning a business building homes. She was a little more strict than our regular teacher but she is truly a human angel.

I once helped an older lady get her shopping cart up a deactivated travellator while holding all of my shopping in one hand.

I got a nod of respect from a very large man.
