Doubling Your Efforts To Earn A Drink

(My science teacher keeps sodas in the classroom, and he gives them out to kids on their birthdays.)

Teacher: “Hey, [My Name], I need the energy worksheet from you.”

Me: “I already turned that in.”

Teacher: “I don’t have it. You need to do it again.”

(I take the worksheet, finish it quickly, and give it back to him.)

Teacher: “I told [other student] to do this.”

Me: “No, you told me.”

(The teacher pauses, and he face-palms himself.)

Teacher: “Go get a soda from the fridge.”
