I'm slightly vexed The amount of perfectly fine colouring pencils one of my teachers (I’m a cleaner) threw out for the new school year

Yes I did remove them from her bin because what the hell!? They’re literally fine. One of my coworkers helps out with an after school club and says they are really short of colouring pencils so they will be used!

I've used that exact brand of pencils before, and they were really waxy. i had horrible luck getting them to color well because they were so light. i think i donated mine. it was really strange because Staedtler is generally a good brand. it was just the Norris color ones that were a bit odd, in my experience.
