Keys........More Than You Can Imagine

Do they do KEYS here in the Congo or what????? They have a problem with keys here......actually its a problem with LOCKS.....they only manufacture one lock per key. I figured this out the first day I got here. In the States, one key may open up 3, 8, 20 different doors cuz they all have the same locking mechanism inside. BUT NOT HERE!!!!! No way! So I have on my key chain 10 keys that open up the most essential doors in my life.....my 2 house keys, my office key, the 2 locker rooms, 3 equipment rooms, 2 keys that open up the PE room...and that's just the beginning! I have a total of 28 keys (most are in a desk somewhere) that open doors all around campus...some doors I have never been thru. I hate carrying my keys....they are heavy and make my shorts sag....I guess the positive is I fit in better with the saggers on campus.....
The key issue isn't only my problem....its everyone's dilemma. This is a picture of my friend John Gorenflo and some of his keys. He and his family went to South Africa with us (I teach his 3 beautiful girls...Rachel, Sarah, and Christiana) and John has lots of keys. He is a really an important guy...he flies planes for MAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship)....so you'd think, he needs lots of keys!! But Me........I am not that important. I shouldn't be responsible for so many keys and so many rooms to go into and out of. I'm only a PE teacher and coach......heck...hard to believe they even entrust 1 key to me.....just keep my office open....why not??? Daily its invaded by kids anyway who think its really their office! Maybe I should let them carry my keys.....why not, they're pants are already saggin'........
