I have to tell you this funny story (it's short!) |
|
Edited on Thu Mar-03-05 07:05 PM by Bouncy Ball
One time, when I was teaching evening school (a punishment for the kids), a female coach came striding in and went right up to the female assistant principal standing next to me.
She had a piece of paper in her hand and said "I found this taped to the gym door."
It read, in a teenager's handwriting: "For free BJs, call xxx-xxx-xxxx" (there was a phone number there).
The coach looked seriously at the assistant principal and said, "WHAT did I TELL you about giving those out for FREE?"
The kids were supposed to be totally silent, doing work. I CHOKED.
The assistant principal had to run out of the room because her laughter was about to explode out of her. The coach just walked right back out, never cracked a smile.
I love working with people like that. They just make things so fun.

Gee, Bouncy Ball, what kind of town do you live in?
I thought it was us immoral people north of the 49th parallel who were supposed to be so depraved!

The people you work with matters more than the actual job you do, in my experience. I can't believe you managed not to laugh!

7. They were horribly behaved kids. |

If I had so much as cracked a smile they would have thought "PAR-TAY!" then I would have had hell getting them back to being quiet and working.
But later? I busted a gut laughing.
I agree, the people you work with make a HUGE difference.
