The woman would be compensated for her watch.(after producing the certs that come with that kind of watch) Buying a rolex isnt like buying a timex
The teacher would not be fired.
And the workers should be paid.
The certification would be a critical component both to establish that the watch existed and to verify its value. I don't think all Rolex watches cost $24k do they?
Other sources say the watch was a gift from her husband--late husband?--however, so she might not have the paperwork. That part I don't know.
Most people with high value jewelry items like that, however, do buy an extra rider to cover such items that are then scheduled on their homeowner's policy. So she could file a claim and let her insurance company fight it out with TSA.
If she is not insured, cannot prove the watch existed and was worth what she claims, I think she's probably not going to collect.
I'm still wavering on whether to fire or censure the teacher. I know sh*t happens suddenly and without warning, but it does seem improbable that the girls could have taken it all off before she had opportunity to intervene. Still, is even a mock strip tease suitable for highschool?
I guess I'm leaning toward paying the workers and firing people who would put them out of a day's work just so they could have a photo op. But then most workers paid by the hour don't get paid if their place of work is closed down due to fire, flood, or other causes. Nobody compensates business people who lose business when their streets are closed off to accommodate motorcades or even street repairs. So that one may not be completely cut and dried.
