You're a teacher if:

You're a teacher if.....

*You believe the staff room should have a valium salt lick.
*You find humour in other people's stupidity.
*You want to slap the next person who says "must be nice to have
all those holidays". [That is for bloody sure]
*You can tell it's a full moon without even looking outside.
*You believe "shallow gene pool" should have it's own box on the
card.
* You believe that unspeakable evil will befall you if anyone says "Boy the kids have been great today".
* When out in public, you feel the urge to talk to strange children
and correct their behaviour.
* Marking all A's on the report card would make your life so much
simpler.
* When you mention "vegetables" and you're not talking about food
groups.
*You think people should be required to get a government permit
before being allowed to reproduce.
* You wonder how some parents ever manage to reproduce.
* You believe in aerial spraying of Prozac.
* You really encourage an obnoxious parent to check into home
schooling.
* You have had your profession slammed by someone who would
never dream of doing your job.
* Your own children have numbers instead of names because there is
no name you could give a child that wouldn't bring on high blood
pressure the moment you heard it.
* Meeting a child's parents instantly answers the question, "Why is
this kid like this?".



Too true

LOL...some of those would be applicable to my customer service job.

Well, I'm not a teacher, but I went to school. And looking back on it, I must say one thing to all my teachers... "I'm sorry!!!"

NICE....I needed a good laugh today :D

I had a HS math teacher who would always 'tell it to you straight', he didn't mince words to avoid hurting feelings.
About 2 years ago he had a student who only showed up to class about 1/4 of the time, and when there, would just sleep.
At the school's open house mid-semester, this student's parents approached him and asked, "Why the #%&$ is my kid failing your class???" My teacher said, "Because he's a moron from a shallow gene pool." The parents threw water in his face, and he got a talking-to from the superintendent, but no one would fire him because his students invariably scored highest in the state on tests. He was so good I took 5 classes from him.

Sounds like my classroom. I don't punish - I get even and the kids know it :devil:

I also don't beat around the bush when I tell parents about their kids - strangely enough they appreciate it ;)

Sigh - parent/teacher night is coming up soon - damn I hate it. Sometimes I think the parents are more stupid than the kids :p

This same teacher 'accidentally' disconnected the intercom speaker in his room, as he was getting interrupted 10 times daily with pointless announcements.
