Edit: vortex, wasn't something new the one that had basically one of your parents in it?? I forget which parent though
yep. Basically, both of them. The mom was crazy and the dad was awesome.
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Alpen:
is it legal for a school to claim that anything you created at the school (lesson plans, etc,) is THEIR property and cannot be taken or deleted?
Anything I create at my work is their property. I don't know if teaching is different, but it's par for the course in IT.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Pix, what does the employment contract look like? Is it silent on this issue?

The status is NOT quo.

That just goes against everything I know about education. Teaching is collaborative, and it is not meant to be a competition. The school does not own my ideas. I would take them to court to defend that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, it's the center quickedit, isn't it? I kept wondering why people were putting Parker to the right in their posts.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Stories? Video? I am so clueless when it comes to stuff that's not on my TV screen.
Erm. Well, here's the hoodsurfing video. [link] As for the stories, they were of the he's-skeevy-but-considering-source-takeit-witha-grainof-salt type. YtoleranceforhijinksMV
Rent Love and Basketball. It's a beautiful love story. She's also hot in Something New. And The Best Man is just a parade of hot men and women. Jaysus.

Everything I ever wrote for my employers, including magazine articles, newsletters, communications plans and web copy, was their property. Almost all my freelance work is work for hire.

MFN, It's entirely possible that they have snuck a line about that in there somewhere (it's massively long), but since we can't be employed without signing it, I don't see how that leaves any of us an option.
I am seriously thinking about not using this laptop any longer and never backing up to the server. This is my life's work. Most of what I have in my files was created over the course of 14 years in this career and has grown and evolved as a piece of my practice. I refuse to just hand it over to a school who wouldn't know what to do with it in the first place. I will gladly share with anyone who wants to use it, but I still own it.
