A school teacher injured his back and had
to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body. It fit under his shirt and was
not noticeable at all.
On the first day of the term, still with
the cast under his shirt, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in school.
Walking confidently into the rowdy
classroom, he opened the window as wide as possible and then busied himself with desk
work. When a strong breeze made his tie flap, he took the desk stapler and stapled the tie
to his chest.
