Phat to Fabulous!

...Trevon! So I am at work on Friday and I see my phone ring and it is my friend, Anitra, unfortunately I couldn't get to the phone since I was sitting in a meeting. So later in the evening I decide to give her a call back to see what was up. So she says she just had to call and share with me a story on what her son had done now. Now the background on Trevon is humorous to say the least, he is always finding some way to get himself in trouble and there is usually a good tale that goes along with it, this time is no different.

So Trevon goes to daycare before school, at home in the morning he eats breakfast, and he gets another breakfast at the daycare in the morning before they take him to school. At his school, as with many schools they have food meal accounts for the students. The parents put money in so that the student doesn't have to have cash at school to pay for their food, you know the deal. Well, Anitra and her husband don't put money in Trevon's account since he takes a lunch to school everyday and eats not one, but TWO breakfasts every morning. Well not that long ago they get a bill from the school cafeteria saying they owe about $15 in money for breakfasts that Trevon had been getting at school in the morning. Well of course he got in trouble and knew that he was never ever to do that again.

So about 2 weeks ago Trevon had arrived at school and was in the cafeteria crying. One of the school maintenance people happened to see him and asked him what was wrong. Trevon told the maintenance lady that he was hungry and didn't have any money, she not knowing that he had already had not one, buy TWO breakfasts that morning, told him to go to the cafeteria and get breakfast and tell the lunch lady to charge it to her account. So Trevon did just that, he went to the cafeteria got him some breakfast, got his grub on and went about his merry way. So on Friday Anitra gets a call from Trevon's teacher, telling her that they had a bit of a problem at the school and she wasn't quite sure how to address it. Apparently, since that one day two weeks ago Trevon had been getting breakfast on the maintenance lady's account every single morning. The lunch lady just so happened to ask the maintenance lady if she really wanted this little boy getting breakfast on her account every single day. She was of course caught off guard because she had only given Trevon permission to get breakfast one time, TWO WEEKS AGO! The teacher knowing that Trevon was going to get in trouble for this, tells Anitra that she was calling not for him to really get in trouble, but because the maintenance lady was trying to figure off a way for Trevon to work off his debt and they hadn't come up with anything that she would agree to let him do. Anitra's response, "Work his little butt to the bone!" I bout died laughing, I know if that had of been J, I would have been so upset not as much for her taking advantage of a hustle, because yes it is dishonest and wrong, but more so because you are at school and got these people thinking we don't feed you and can't afford to take care of you. Anitra said the same thing. I said you have to give it to him, the kid is obviously a natural born hustler.

I just had to share that story. I hope everyone had a great weekend, mine was busy, but I did a little spring cleaning. Did a little karaoke last night. I had fun. I will try to get another post up about the karaoke experience later. Until then, holla at ya girl!
