Omgosh…I know this is serious, but this one hit my funny bone.

I agree with the previous posters; there are enough compliments and favorable comments in the same letter that the only person who will look bad will most likely be the teacher. And a hardworking, “contentious” fellow sounds a whole lot more interesting to me than the usual run-of-the-mill hardworking, “conscientious” guy anyway…lol!

Btw… I second e-kity…you must have really good eyesight to have made out all of those comments. The school may need to consider using thicker envelopes for recommendations. jk :-)
