Supervisors have to justify their “jobs” somehow Morphe’. Generally I get total freedom to do what I want with my students and projects. Did have a 2 hour meeting with assistant superintendent and supervisor about a boob once. Big to do over the boob but no one said jack about the person swallowing a butcher knife in the same drawing. Funny. Small minded people
