Seems like a reasonable reaction Part 24


Principal files complaint over missed high-five

EL PASO, Texas -What do you call a high-five that misses? Many would just call it awkward, but an El Paso school principal calls it assault.

The misfire came last week when schools superintendent Lorenzo Garcia was giving principals high-fives while celebrating state test scores. When Garcia came to Barron Elementary School principal Mary Helen Lechuga and she didn't raise her hand, he tapped her on the head instead.

But Lechuga — a former district administrator who was recently demoted — filed a police complaint saying she felt pain and feared what he might do next.

Garcia said she's a disgruntled employee and her complaint is petty.

The El Paso Times reported Thursday that school district police are investigating.

Leave it to an El Paso citizen (I couldn't figure out if it was El Pazsoan or El Pasonian) to screw it up for everyone. This is why women can't really be trusted in the work place. You try to make them part of the male comroidary with a well timed high five and they screw it up. Then they sue you. El terrible. From now on this superintendent better go with the fist bump. It's less messy.
