I’ll forgive ‘em a pencil sharpener or two for that.

Back in the day, every room had a pencil sharpener mounted on the wall. It did not move, and it was always there, every year. Why would they need to replace it with another? Are they made that poorly now that they need frequent replacement?

There are electronic ones....and everytime someone sharpens a pencil the noise stops the whole class.

Put enough of those pencil sharpeners together and you got yourself a scrapyard payday.
