I've made a terrible mistake. One of my pupils put their hand up for a high five and I obliged. Trouble is, everyone wants one now. I'm going to have to start wearing gloves otherwise my hand will start bleeding. That and I'm not entirely convinced by the personal hygiene of some of the pupils. On a scale of one to ten I'd approximate my desire to get dysentry as being two with a margin of error of one.
I even had the deputy head's daughter high-fiving me at break. This is bad because I have a policy of avoiding senior management or any of their offspring wherever possible. I'm always worried that they've been bugged so I should watch my words carefully.
As for high-fiving I think I'm stuck with it because it's ahrd to refuse now. Unless I give with one hand and take with the other.

I think they're going to try to wear you down using the well established 'high-five' technique
