29- I agree with you that one must be very careful when quoting others and/or accusing others of l”h that one clearly understand what was written. I have also seen that to be a problem in the CR.

In this case, I fail to see how that applies. The OP stated that when his daughter applied to the school, he was asked if he wears blue shirts. He responded that he does but only because he has to for work. Their response was that he must change as soon as he leaves work.

This was clearly not a random conversation between two people. The OP felt it necessary to mention that it was the school his daughter was applying to and not a random person on the street. He also felt it necessary to mention that the school told him this as he was applying to the school.

It is clear that the school was telling this to him as a parent in the school, and that they were telling him this as a matter of policy – the policy being that if wants to be a school parent, he is not allowed to wear blue shirts (except when he is as work).

I do not see any other of reading his words.

Btw, when I researched the matter, I did describe the situation as it was written (that he must change his shirts as soon as he leaves work), and I was told that they all of the girls’ high schools in Lakewood accept girls whose fathers wear blue shirts (not just at work), and therefore the story can’t be true.
