Things Are Finally Starting To Add Up
I am a substitute teacher. I meet over a hundred kids a day. It’s hard to keep track of where I’ve been and who I’ve met. However, kids seem to remember me.
Student: “Hey! Hey! Ms. [My Name]! Remember me?”
Me: “Maybe. When did I meet you?”
Student: “Last week!”
Me: “I covered for eight teachers last week. What class?”
Student: “Math!”
Me: “I covered for several different math teachers. What’s your teacher’s name?”
Student: “Mrs. [Teacher]!”
Me: “She had eight class periods. Which one were you in?”
Student: “Seventh! You still don’t remember me?!”
Me: “Sorry, dude. Any other info?”
Student: “Hm… I got in trouble for sniffing glue and eating lip gloss!”
Me: “[Student]! You! I remember. Nice to see you again.” *Pauses* “Please don’t sniff or eat anything in this class.”
It was a chemistry class. I kept a very close eye on him.
