Reply #23: Is this in general, or in specific?

I work for a school district in which the gossip is continually flying around. I have learned that most of it is amusing speculation, unless you hear it from a 1) custodian; 2) lunch lady; or 3) student. They are the only ones who really have the straight skinny on what is going on. Teachers and administrators are clueless for the most part!

As for defending myself, hell no. I have the philosophy that if I ignore it, it will go away. The gossips will move on to something juicier to chew on tomorrow.
