This appeared on the back of our weekly staff bulletin in my pigeon hole this morning. I have no idea which staff member passed it on for inclusion on the back, but it gave me a little bit of a giggle. If you're a teacher, you'll recognise yourself here. If you're not, you could probably still understand most of the sentiments behind these nine sure fire ways to know that you are a teacher...
1. You can hear 25 voices behind you and know exactly which one belongs to the child out of line.
2. You get a secret thrill out of laminating something.
3. You walk into a shop and hear the words 'It's Ms/Mr ______' and know you've been spotted.
4. You have 25 people that accidentally call you Mum/Dad at one time or another.
5. You can eat a multi-course meal in under twenty-five minutes.
6. You've trained yourself to go to the toilet at two distinct times of the day: recess and lunch.
7. You start saving other people's rubbish because most likely, you can use that toilet paper tube or plastic butter tub for something in the classroom.
8. You believe the teachers' staffroom should be equipped with a margarita machine.
9. You want to slap the next person who says it 'must be nice to work 9 to 3:30 and have summers off'.
All so very true...
