Works just fine when the parents fuck right off.

You know what really grinds my gears? That it looks like a swollen dick.
blatfieldsteinberg
This post really grinds my gears
abylake
Technically they'll work if one of the gear is deep enough and the other two are on separate planes.

And when schools aren't mostly funded by property taxes

Looks like pubic education is grinding to a halt

Now wrap those gears firmly is a drive belt labelled "Compliance."

Which education board is this? Put your damn board on it.
raider111111
This is crap. We tried to be involved and asked our sons teacher for help. We were told her that it wasn't her job. Going private now.
TheFastpaws
You forgot the underpaid support staff that is treated like shit. This goes for all the departments not just custodians.

The education system really grinds my gears
GenericSwede
Currently in public school. Noticed immediately.
zeedog007
If it moved as drawn wouldn't the students movement cause the teachers and parents to clash?
david42
Clearly the designer had a public education, then got a degree in Conceptual Art.
InternationalPhoneticAlphabet
maybe it's an intentional dig.
cousteau
Well, this shows that all the parts being connected properly is also a requirement.
EadEchiC
No wonder why nothing gets done
Kurnos
But all three only need one to turn to give the illusion of working.
jmaginary
From these comments we can see a lack of imagination in the public education system... The Drawing have no constrain in the 3rd dimension..
DocMowinckel
Physics, bitches. Do you know it?
hideyokidshideyowifis
You are necessary, easily replaced, but necessary.
mattsall
Tbf, all those gears could be working, it says nothing about them working together
ChawkoMilk
those gears could never work together. you cant just slao three gears altogether and call it a day.
colonelmust4rd
I've been a mechanical engineering student for 2 days now and I can confidently tell you that's exactly how it works
mattsall
Exactly, but maybe their design intention was to not turn?
koboshi
There's no way those wheels would turn in this position.

Parents, jamming up the school system causing the gears to grind to a halt...
Operational117
Parents, teachers or the students, really. It's just a matter of perspective.
Niggulon
As a teacher I've seen some shitty teachers but 9/10 times it's the parents fucking it up for everyone. 'My kid is special!' Fuck off Susan.
TheAshenTiefling
Get your shit together Susan
treyjan60
Higher education is tenure keeping the professors turning while the students sit completely detached and motionless.
BionicToad
Thought this was a slam on welfare parents.
BigTex1
It can be anything you want it to be.
TimmyDans
Where is the Addmin wheel and budget come into play here?
ktheman
And what about classified staff like janitors, librarians, and language development aides, too?
Lambpasty
The admins got the budget for this broken gear design approved and implemented.
SuperIncoherentRantingMan
That's represented by the red, surrounding the gears so there's no way to access it and fix it without destroying the whole system.

This is probably my favorite all time comment ever on imgur! I read it in a contemptuous voice.

As a former top 100 school public teacher, *clap clap clap.* Administration is the biggest waste of money that exists in the system.
[deleted]
[deleted]
themuttonisniceandlean
That was not my intention. It was a top 100 school, run VERY well, but the admin, while necessary, was a HUGE part of the budget. 1/2
themuttonisniceandlean
I think most people feel that less should be spend on at the top and more towards the students.
themuttonisniceandlean
Administration I mean the admin building people, not the principals, counselors, librarians, janitorial services. I mean the board etc.
BigTex1
In case anyone else went to public school, the gears wouldn't turn.
Godo4
The grated turned without any grindage at my public school
BigTex1
I'm sure their was no grinding at the grated turned.
ArcadiaFell
Or they lack teeth and spin in the wrong ways. And one does equatorial spins rather than (anti)clockwise spins.
Duffmansaysalotofthing
Ha ! I went to a private school and I had to check the comments to figure it out ....
HitlersArtCritic
I feel like a good fix would be adding a 4th gear being the board or something similar, but it wouldn't be approved.
Megatronus04
I know
apearthenbananas
Maybe that's the point. And the goal is to stop teachers and parents from getting in the students way.
ClaudioLombard
The parnt and teacher gear would clash
dfsmitty0711
Thanks for explaining it...for my friend.
WhiteningMcClean
We never learned about the gear wars
TraitorousTrump3
You're only thinking in 2 dimensions. Shift the upper gear half back, the lower gear half forward, they'll both turn.
vendell777
I was homeschooled, does that explain why I understood it?
BigTex1
No, but it does explain your crippling social anxiety and presence on Imgur.
TheOneAndOnlyLump
That's because an administrator, who got the job from political connections, put it all together.
LooseyGooseyBrett
Based on the spacing a tooth size and position, I don't believe the "teachers and "parents" cogs will contact.
ColonelDragonWang
There are three dimensions. Depth is one of them.
ColonelDragonWang
Learned that in public school.
BleakMidwinters
Public school is fine. People fail for many reasons. Also, it depends on your standards of success. Plenty of good people made it through
WhatAnAbsoluteCasual
You missed a perfect "you know what really grinds my gears" opportunity with that title.
BigTex1
I know, it really grinds my gears that I did that.

We'll once you strip all the gears off of one of the wheels, it'll turn

Dammit, I did go to public school and, dammit, I didn't notice. I'm surprised I even wrote this sentence.

We're very proud of you, still.

If you grind it hard enough, it will

That certainly seemed to be the point at my school

that wouldn't be a school that would be a weird as fuck brothel.

You're assuming the gears are all on the same plane.
missusmeeseeks
No, no. That's not a plane, it's a little schoolhouse.
TheBlackVan
Hit them with that college level shit!
ruferto
why yes, we are
ReverseTrapTsukasa
While the 2D image may imply the gear matching on the "same plane" there is an extra red circle on the students gear. Implies the students
ReverseTrapTsukasa
are working on a different level then the teachers and parents.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
Then there's the size of the gears which may indicate any number of thing thematically. Importance, level of involvement needed, or others.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
Thematically as an "art" piece this makes me cringe at the possible message it may be trying to convey.
Cheesecakecrush
A simple 2d image implies they are.
Molder12
Was just about to say that the parents and teachers gears are not on the same plane and do not interact
APictureofLokiEveryday
Until the parent teacher conference and then all hell breaks lose
warmNchewey
I totally disagree. If you fucked around maybe but I got a good education from a public school...
LincolnSiixEcho
I fucked around :(
FloatinFire
My school did Jack shit for me. I slept through every class and got a 3.5 gpa without trying.
warmNchewey
You didn't do shit for yourself...
FloatinFire
Well I went pseo my junior and Senior year so I think I did
FaxCelestis
I think he was talking about the gears in the picture.
BigTex1
I was, but the other interpretation works too I guess.
BastenGreyHound
Yeah, public schools make factory workers. Now self teaching and social networking. That shit is more flexible and has more results.
TimmyDans
What factories? Did we get manufacturing back?
Antelino
Did we lose it? I'm confused as I've worked in a factory before and I'm 26 so wasn't that long ago. Also all the new factories being built??
IgnisInvictus
Um... have you visited Flint or Detroit recently?
moto192834
Factory work has largely been outsourced from the US to poorer countries for quite some time now.
moto192834
It depends on the ps. Mine had metal detectors, fights daily, students assaulting teachers, etc. Was basically a babysitter

In my public school I got beaten up by someone's dad because I scratched their kid while said kid was beating me up
DavidDireZebra
Shoulda stabbed him, loser.
warmNchewey
Lol while I agree that sucks it doesn't mean you can't get a good education if you want one...
alurkertryinghisbest
Yeah, it's not always that simple though. No resources for people at higher levels and nowhere to do the work. Those of us with shitty >>
alurkertryinghisbest
>> home lives can't escape shit environments and if you're being educated by Google there's not much point being in a public school anyway.

This may be the difference between big city public and rural Midwest public school
