What they didn’t tell you
Except you still marking
You find yourself telling people the same thing in three different ways
When it’s the end of term
When it’s the
end of term
You will be doing this
Or this
So expect heckling at every opportunity
Punters to talk over
you
Continual trips to the loo
The aroma of stale B.O.
Rustling of stashed
crisp packets
And if you are really nervous
And will turn into this
You must always be positive
Even when you want to
do this
When you go shopping
Spotting you will be
the highlight of their day
Except they don’t want
your autograph
They are just amazed you are actually a real person
If you are really hated or loved it will like having your own paparazzi
With your shopping trip documented on You Tube
So drive 40 miles away if you want any of these
Or these
And you will need to find alternatives to swear words
Fudge it!
Shoot
Oh Billiards
And learn a whole new version of the English language
You gypsy Chav
That’s so gay
Minger
But there are positives!
You get to watch interesting student debates
Attend inspiring meetings
Enjoy the thrill of not being listened too all day
Being spoken to like a piece of …
Endure teenage hormones that even parents don’t want to put up with
Have your performance constantly measured
For respect?
For money?
The excellent pension?
NO ?
Well there is a credit crunch!
And finally what do you call a group
of like minded
teachers?
A whinge!
