A teacher in Auckland, New Zealand is in danger of losing her job after it was reported that she was streetwalking after class. (Only way this story could be better: if the stool pigeon was a john and the father of one of her charges.)
But there's, as always if we're bothering to report the story, a twist, if you haven't figured out what it is already...
The woman, who was not identified in news reports, is completely within her legal rights to work as a prostitute, since hooking is legal in NZ. Of course, that never stopped a crusading school board:
The newspaper, which did not name the teacher or her school, said a parent told the teacher's principal, who was balancing a possible negative reaction from parents with the woman's right to work in a job which [is legal.]
The teacher, as you may have imagined, told the school board it's none of their damn business what she does with her time. Better yet: she's a primary school teacher. Would the kids even care? And best of all: she's in her 30s and the (single?) mother of two children. Great, School Board People, your possible decision to fire her wouldn't affect her or her family at all...
