[quote=Anonymous]I was poor and came from unemployed drug addicts. I was the kid who only had three outfits and never showered - you have probably seen the type. I was bullied mercilessly growing up. Everything from getting beat up each morning on the school bus to having tacks and brown clay put on my seat to having my homework stolen and  destroyed, to having people refuse to be in a group with me  for any class project, to getting tripped going down the stairs, to getting my face shoved in trash cans, everything.

But I was smart and had a nice side and my HS gym teacher of all people, took a shine  to me, and insisted on other teachers helping me. She barely talked to me, but worked a lot behind the  scenes, and I went away to college on a full scholarship. I was the poorest one there, but now nobody bullied me. I had access to safe bathrooms and showered every morning and ate every single day.

Ten years after graduating I was sitting in on interviews and one of my worst bullies came in. That'll be a big fat NOPE from me. [/quote]
