Flipping the coin

There's something I've learned, now that I work in a high school. Teachers are worse than students. In all possible ways.

They rebel against any type of authority. They whine. They use pathetic excuses, of "the dog ate my homework" vein. They skip classes just as often as the kids do.

It's really fascinating to watch from the other side of the coin. I always thought teachers really had it together and were figures to emulate. I'm glad I was so naive back then, and can only hope our students are the same.
