The poem "That's Not My Job" was very confusing and i did not understand what was being said. Nobody and Anybody were very confusing to me because if Nobody did the job then Anybody would not have gotten mad and asked Somebody. My point of view from this poem/short story is that Nobody is lazy and did not do his job.

Should schools/cm enable students to use their personal devices in the classroom?
Yes schools should allow students to use their own technology in school. For instance cell phones should be allowed to be used in class a type of resource in school. Ipads and tablets can be used as virtual notebooks to take notes in class instead of carrying around all notebooks and binders, it is easier to just have one simple tablet to take all your class notes and homework in.
