for my fellow teachers...

You might be a teacher if...

..you believe the playground should be equipped with a Ritalin salt lick.

..you want to slap the next person who says, 'Must be nice to work 8 to 3:30 and have summers off.'

..it is difficult to name your own child because there's no name you can come up with that doesn't bring high blood pressure as it is uttered.

..you can tell it's a full moon without ever looking outside.

..you believe 'shallow gene pool' should have its own box on a report card.

..you believe that unspeakable evils will befall you if anyone says, 'Boy, the kids sure are mellow today.'

..when out in public, you feel the urge to snap your fingers at children you do not know and correct their behavior.

...you have no social life between August and June.

..you think people should have a government permit before being allowed to reproduce.

..you wonder how some parents MANAGED to reproduce!

..you laugh uncontrollably when people refer to the staff room as the 'lounge.'

..you encourage an obnoxious parent to check into charter schools or home schooling.

..you think caffeine should be available in intravenous form

..meeting a child's parent instantly answers the question, 'Why is this kid like this?'


just thought I'd try to give everyone a laugh!

Those three are just too good!! No doubt about that full moon! And ohhhhh 'must be nice to work...'- FH and I had that same discussion last night! Well, sort of. I think I made a comment about teachers not making enough $$$ and he said considering the time I get off, I probably make equal to what he would make if he had that time off. Whatevah!

Thanks for the laugh on a Sunday! Just to think we go back to work tomorrow!!!!!! The thought of those 'LOVELY' children is making me anxious>>>sarcastic!

I love it!!! Two weeks until vacation.

i love it...thanks for posting


i hate people who have preconceived notions about the teaching profession - they'd run like hell if they tried it

love it!

Great list!!!
