Yes thank you Jocelyn... I haven't had many responses
but this rule was in effect when I was in my first
year... It is one I would follow if I broke or messed
someone else's but is also one that is a case by case
scenario -- meaning I forgot this one (haint broke no
ones else's nuttin lately-- oh blast I guess it's
gonna happen tomorrow!!!)...
But this is a very important one because if nothing
else when someone writes it the other is less inclined
to rip there head off....
So everyone come on the few rules I have gotten are
good...
Thanks Jocelyn,
Anji

It looks like this thread has come and gone...
But, something came to me while walking to work this morning. One of the
rules I appreciate most in our campus studio is to leave a note when one
accidentily breaks a piece of another. This applies to greenware, glazed
ware, loading mistakes and even big boo-boos that happen in the kiln
(blown up pots, fused pots, slumped pieces that were loaded half off the
shelf in a high fire, overfired work, etc). I've found that to receive a
note when such happens to your work means so much more (and results in a
better state of mind) than to simply find your piece ruined, and left with
no apology. Also, being the one who has had to write a note or two, I
feel they contribute to a more respectful atmosphere- a lesson I needed a
couple of times when loading kilns of others work after a long day.
Hope this helps,
Jocelyn

At the studio where I teach, we have one instructor who was so notorious =

for breaking other people's work that we had little cards printed for =3D
him that read: Oops! Sorry! and his name . We gave them to him as a gag =3D
gift at his birthday party. I must say he DID use them and eventually =3D
ran out. Honest.
