Ten Reasons why I had a terrible, horrible, no good very bad day
Have you ever read this book?
Today I felt like I lived this book. Did you ever just have one of those days. One of those never ending, hard to find anything good about it days. I did. Here's why:
- Lunch today was ridiculous. We had taco salad as regular and a soft taco or PB&J as an alternate and just about every teacher got this wrong. Why do we have so many choices in K-3?
- Why do kids think it's okay to talk to an adult like we are their peers. While taking care of staff lunches one of the staff said, "I'm not in a hurry, don't rush." One of the 3rd graders responded with, "I'm in a hurry why don't you rush with my lunch." Seriously? I made him go to the end of the line.
- The 7 p.m. meeting that I was covering for the paper tonight started at 6 p.m. and no one told me. The other daily paper reporter was apparently informed of the time change.
- Some of the teachers in my school think it's okay to leave their dirty dishes in the faculty room.
- My supervisor doesn't think it's a big deal to fetch the dishes.
- I, on the other hand, am not a dog and I think that if you walk down to the cafeteria to get lunch that you should walk back down with your dirty dishes.
- It has gotten to the point where certain faculty will stick their encrusted soup bowls into the dirty silverware retainer just so I will bring them down.
- I have started taken them out and leaving them in their sink.
- My principal supports me and thinks, as I do, that since we expect better of our own children why would we not expect grown professionals to clean up after themselves.
- Today I posted a sign that reads: Please return your trays and other dishes to the cafeteria.
Here's hoping tomorrow is a better day.
