The never-ending work week rounds out with,

“Hey teach, I heard you made a sub cry?”

I can’t even make my own kids do that.

I’ve never given a black eye.

But, hey, I’ll take the clout.

I didn’t just make a sub pout,

I made her bawl.

It wasn’t the kids climbing the walls.

Nope. Not the lack of roster,

the rampant disrespect.

Nope, none of that caused her stress.

It was the red-headed reading teacher,

asking her politely

to try and keep her students from

stealing trinkets off my keys.

But, I can say I’m pleased

with the results.

Don’t mess with this lady,

she sure knows how to insult!

  5. Oh I’m sure my daughter who teaches 8th grade science can relate. She doesn’t take grief from any of those kids.. 💞

  6. Kids+subs=chaos (unless…you have some kind of sub magic). She may have learned a valuable lesson about her limits.
