Your timeline is a bit flawed. Perhaps you have a disability that affects timeline skills?

The lawsuit states that in December 2006, her ex-husband’s girlfriend called the district and said Brennan, a mother of three, had worked as a stripper before becoming a teacher.

The suit alleges Brennan was put on leave, and that the school tried to “coerce” her into resigning. Upon returning from leave in 2007, she was asked to sign a waiver indicating she would not sue.

Brennan received positive performance reviews through 2008 and was granted tenure, earning $73,744 a year, according to a previous report by the Grand Rapids Press.

Beginning in 2009, however, her evaluations became increasingly negative. Documents obtained by the Press show Brennan was absent 26 days in 2008-09, more than the allotment for personal and sick days. The teacher claims the absences were necessary for legal issues related to her divorce and a custody battle.

So the school district put her on leave, brought her off leave, gave her positive performance reviews and then tenured her ... and then, two years later, decided to maneuver her into a position in which she couldn't do her job so that it could then fire her, like it had wanted to do all along.

Or maybe she's a blithering dingbat with a trainwreck of a personal life that finally spilled over, irreparably, into her working life.

I didn't read the whole story but the point is, if you're a stripper, even for a week or a month, you're a stripper for your whole life.
Not fair, but that's the way it is. A lesson to teach our daughters.
