		<description>Good to hear from you guys. :)

G, that doesn't surprise me, and probably the custodial staff could entail lunch duty or janitorial duties, but she played her cards and got 50k.  I don't blame the school for telling their side of things though.

I've got suits here today all day so I won't be able to check in unless they give us a break.

Have a great day all.

		<description>I wonder if the Lunch Lady wasn't feeding us a load of bull with her sob story???  Here's a press release I came across...  makes you wonder...

Press Release: Mrs. Denise Martin
December 17, 2007
Douglas Public Schools 

On the “Survivor China” television program that aired on December 16, 2007, Mrs. Denise Martin, an employee of the Douglas Public Schools, stated that she was demoted from her position as a cafeteria worker upon her return from taping the show. This statement is false. In fact, Mrs. Martin held a full-time position as a custodian prior to her participation in the series, and she returned to this same position upon her return from China. Mrs. Martin was granted - at her request - an unpaid leave of absence so that she could participate in the “Survivor” program. We were pleased and excited to support Denise, and have enthusiastically cheered her on throughout the duration of the show.

Although Mrs. Martin was a cafeteria employee prior to her selection as a contestant, she asked to be considered for a promotion to full-time custodian, and was promoted to this position on March 30, 2007. This promotion came with additional benefits and a higher salary. Following her leave, she then returned to this same position.

Regretfully, the Douglas Public School District was inaccurately portrayed as failing to be accommodating to an employee during what the District viewed as a “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunity. This is far from the case. On the contrary, we granted all requests made by Mrs. Martin so that she could participate in the “Survivor” series. Since Mrs. Martin was on an approved leave, her position was held open for her, and she returned to this same position upon her return from China. As a District, we make every effort to support our employees, and will continue to do so.
