This was voted unanimously by the office staff as the actual answering machine message for the school:
"Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting the right staff member, please listen to all your options before making a selection:
To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1
To make excuses for why your child did not do his work - press 2
To complain about what we do - press 3
To swear at staff member - press 4
To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your
newsletter and several flyers mailed to you - press 5
If you want us to raise your child - press 6
If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone - press 7
To request another teacher for the third time this year - press 8
To complain about bus transportation - press 9
To complain about school lunches - press 0
If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable / responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework, and that it's not the teacher's fault for your children's lack of effort hang up and have a nice day!"
