At least you have the elevators; only disabled folks and teachers have access to the elevators here. (It'a really stupid, too!) Although, considering that they only have 1 elevator, it's not even worth that.
We have two elevators- one for teachers, one for students (mainly 'cause my school has 7 floors+basement, plus two sort-of floors). Technically, we're not allowed to use the student elevator this year, because of the school being renovated floor by floor and thus the construction workers need to use it, but no one cares. ;D
BTW, you may not want to quote me as 'Alex'- remember, there is actually a (very) member here with this name; don't want to cause confusion.
Dangit, 8 floors?!? That's insanity! How many teachers? Wow.
Although if my school was reduced to the classroom hall with the gym and everything else was stacked on it, it couid reach at leasty 5 or 6...
What would the people on top do in a fire? They'd never get down!

Actually, there are only around 450 students at my school- not sure how many teachers, but not many for academics. We're an arts high school, so some of the floors are for arts classes- Theatre takes up most of the first floor with our theatres and scene shop, then music has stuff on the second floor, visual arts on 3rd and 7th (I think?), and then dance just got themselves an entire new building for new studios and whatever.
It's crazy.

Oh gosh, I'm glad you're alive. Now I'm never gonna get on a subway.

I tend not to help because I don't want to get blood and gore on my dress shirts.

I shop at Mens Wearhouse. It's moderately-to-low priced, and the guy who owns it went to the same college as I did, and it's where I still work, and he gives a discount
You also get a 50-dollar gift card for every 400 bucks you spend. I don't understand why they don't just reduce prices by 1/8, but whatever. It's still good for two neckties and three pairs of socks.
