Or To Calculate The Length Of His Career
Learning
| May 10, 2013
(We’re sitting in math class and a boy starts jokingly talking about his “dream job.” It’s become a running joke in the class and one day another teacher walks in while he’s talking about it again.)
Student: “I won’t even need math in my line of work. Why do I need to be here?”
Teacher: “Yeah, okay.”
Student: “Should I tell [other teacher] about my dream?”
Teacher: “You’ll love this.”
Student: “I won’t need math because I’m going to be a male stripper! You know, go all ‘Magic Mike’ style.”
Other Teacher: “Well, you’ll need math. You’ll need to know how to measure the diameter of a pole!”
