If I worked for animal control and some dipshit school administer asked be to come collect a human child from their school, they would receive the following with the minimum amount of tact needed to keep my job:

  • “I don’t care that’s it’s a law – that law was written by morons. You’re a moron too.”
  • Variations of “What the hell is wrong with you?”, “I don’t work for you”, and “Go fuck yourself”.

I’d like to think most of the people actually employed as animal control officers would respond the same way.

I work in animal control.

It wouldn’t even get to that point because as soon as our admin called me, I’d laugh and refuse the job. No animal control person will do this, it’s a fucking ludicrous idea and absolutely filled with issues to be sued over.

Kid doesn’t willfully come? Do I use a catch pole and drag him out of school? He’ll be dead before we get to the front doors. Everybody is sued.

What if the kid attacks me, tries to stab me etc because I’m basically attempting to execute the function of the police with no training (yes yes, I know the cops have fuck all training but at least they are legally able to restrain etc, they are in the legal position to deal with it). I’ll take an angry dog over a kid with a knife any day.

In short- the guy is an absolute fuckwit and this idea makes no sense.
