    I got in trouble for trying to use a payphone to call my mother to pick me up on a day when they cancelled school after it started due to worsening ice conditions. I didn’t have permission to use the phone and my teacher got on my ass.

          The post you responded to was responding to someone that got in trouble for using a pay phone to call home when school was canceled.

        They make for better unskilled laborors or cannon fodder that way. Wouldn’t want them to learn that they’re entitled to the pursuit of happiness or anything.
