What Do You Think?

Apparently back in April there was another teacher scandal down in Florida. It wasn't a teacher having sex with her students or anything, but rather a biology teacher who moonlighted on the weekends as a deckhand on a fishing boat. Apparently her job was to dress in a bikini for this job and when the school she taught at saw photos of her in a bikini they fired her. First of all that seems really odd. Lots of teachers have second jobs and lots of teachers wear bikinis. Teachers even get photographed in their bikinis. Shocker I know.

So, Tiffany Shepherd started sending out resumes. She says she sent out 2500 of them but had no job offers at all. She also says she lost custody of her kids and so turned to a new way to make a living. Porn.

"I'm not particularly proud of it. To be honest, I hate it," Shepherd told Page2live.com. "I'm an educated woman, but I never thought it would come to this. No one gets brought up thinking they'll be a floozy."

"It's very professional," says Shepherd on the Web site. "Everyone's tested -- for venereal diseases and AIDS -- and I'm carrying around my little piece of paper that says I'm fine. They love me because I take care of myself and I don't run out to party with my money."

Uh huh. It turns out she is making porn for her old boss the fishing boat captain who, when not running fishing charters owns a porn company. He is the one who convinced Tiffany that she would never get another job teaching and should make some money performing as a porn actress. Tiffany goes by the name Leah Lust.

There are so many things to talk about with this, but number one is I really don't believe her story. I know she got fired by the school district, but that doesn't explain why she lost custody of her kids. Her husband knew about the fishing job. You don't lose your kids because you were working part-time in a bikini. I also find it hard to believe that 2500 resumes from someone who had been teaching for 7 years didn't find one job offer.

I will say that if your goal is to get your kids back, becoming a porn actress is probably not the best way to go about it. Her first movie is called, "My First Sex Teacher." Hey, looks she found a teaching job after all. So, what do you think? Telling the truth? Should she have found a different job?
