HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU'RE A TEACHER? by Jeff Foxworty
#1 You get a secret thrill out of laminating things.
#2 You walk into a store and hear the words, “It’s Ms./Mr. ____________ and know you have been spotted.
#3 You have 25 people who accidentally call you Mom/Dad at one time or another.
#4 You can eat a multi-course meal in under 25 minutes.
... ... #5 You’ve trained yourself to go to the bathroom at two distinct times of the day, lunch and planning period.
#6 You start saving other people’s trash, because most likely, you can use that toilet paper tube or plastic butter tub for something in the classroom.
#7 You want to slap the next person who says, “Must be nice to work 7 to 3 and have summers off”.
#8 You believe chocolate is a food group.
#9 You feel the urge to talk to strange children and correct their behavior when you are out in public.
#10 You think caffeine should be available in intravenous form.
#11 You spend more money on school stuff than you do on your own children.
#12 You ask your husband or friends to use their words and explain if the left hand turn he made was a “good choice” or “bad choice.”
#13 You find true beauty in a can full of perfectly sharpened pencils.
#14 You are secretly addicted to hand sanitizer.
#15 You understand, instantaneously, why a child behaves in a certain way after meeting his/her parents.
(Amazing how true this is!)
I stole this from another persons status, but I had to repost :)
Some of these are SOOOO true. I laughed when I read them because it's funny how dorky we teachers can be at times... like the thing about the pencils. I love sharpened pencils. lol
