Realizing that spring break is still EIGHT FULL WEEKS AWAY.
When kids who are always starting drama try to garner my sympathy when it comes back to bite them.
@ anons who come to me with various ‘hypothetical’ teacher/student relationships thinking they ~got me~ this time…
#listen please just STOP#i am not going to absolve ANY teacher x student relationship of guilt#like NOT A SINGLE ONE#so stop asking me#NO i don't think it's okay if they're both 'adults'#NO i don't think it's okay if they are an ex-student#NO i don't think it's okay if they haven't been their teacher for over 20 years#I DON'T CARE#STOP ASKING ME#I'M NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER GOING TO THINK IT'S OKAY#teaching#teacher problems#education#the office#jim halpert#tw teacher crushes
When a kid is explaining why they “had” to punch someone on the playground.
When I notice a typo in something I literally just made 25 copies of.
When the principal is in the room and one of the kids is acting up.
When my teacher friends and I hang out and inevitably end up talking about whatever nonsense is going on in our schools.
When students are rude to me and then need a favor from me later.
Me during those summer days when I’m not even sure what day of the week it is and don’t even care.
When the job I applied for calls me to set up an interview.

When a student found a feather on the playground and presented it to me as a gift.
Whenever the answer in math ends up being 21, and the entire class yells it back at me in that annoying voice from that annoying vine that I now hate with every fiber of my being.
#i hate that vine#i hate it with everything that i am#it was never funny#and it's definitely not funny now that you've made that joke so many times#also that number seems to come up more than any other number in math#because of course it does#also yayyyyy for my 500th post#teaching#teacher problems#education#the office#michael scott#100
When the kids throw classroom supplies with no regard to safety.
My first year of teaching.
When the kids are misbehaving and I start writing their names down one by one on my clipboard without telling them why.
