For Love, But Mostly For Money

(I am a substitute teacher. I see several students in multiple classes throughout the week. One girl I’ve had for the third time this week walks in and sees me.)

Student: “Wow! You’re here again! You must really like it here.”

Me: “Yup! I like coming to work here. And the paycheck’s not bad either.”

Student: “THEY PAY YOU!? I thought teachers taught for fun!”
