I wish I could do that Jedi mind trick...

...so I could make people believe I've already answered their questions. I really love my job. Until the last week before grades go out. Because no one seems to care about it until then, and then come the parents out of the woodwork. And students asking for EXTRA work in the form of extra credit because learning the material the first time was too much for them to do.

Then teachers start looking ahead at next semester's overcrowded rosters. They complain about the big class sizes like they don't realize it's public school....that thing people say they care about, but never put any real funds or energy into................and people keep reproducing like rabbits, while the number of schools stay the same..........hummmm.

So, I'm locking myself in my room with the lights off so everyone thinks I'm not here until the bell rings again.
