    DRESS CODES AND LUNCHES??!!?? What a bunch of TOTAL BS! When you have compulsory education where students are required by law to attend--then told to sit down and shut up to listen to a government employee lecture -- learn/retain the info and be tested on it -- This is as close to slavery of thinking as you can get. This interview is like interviewing the slave owners about slavery in 1850! They haven't a clue :-(
