Just when you think it can't get worse..

Just when you think it can't get worse, NM shows up late. With his
mother. Mom wants to know why you pushed her child to the floor. You
explain that you did no such thing. She says you are dangerous.
Despite the perceived danger, she leaves her child in your care for
the day. Full house.

Just when you think it can't get worse, aforementioned student bangs
his head on the door repeatedly and asks to go to the nurse. When the
nurse asks what happened, he said you did it.

Just when you think it can't get worse, the kid you thought was
sleeping on the floor wakes up, announces that he has seen up your
skirt and discloses the color of your underwear to the entire class
(green).

Just when you think it can't get worse, a fly appears in the room. All
studets abandon their work to capture the fly. Two students bang
heads. They ask to go to the nurse. You have sent three head injuries
to the nurse today.

Just when you think it can't get worse, a student asks if you are
pregnant. You say no. He turns to the student next to him and says
"She ain't pregnant, she just fat."

Just when you think it can't get worse, you take your students to
cooking class to discover that a student in previous class screamed so
loud and so long he got a nosebleed. Because of AIDS, all blood is
treated as a biohazard so it takes 20 minutes to clean up. You have
lost 20 minutes of your lunch.

Just when you think it can't get worse, you are told that a middle
school student has stolen a master key and made copies. Since the
student andhis buddies have access to all rooms, you are encouraged to
lock up your stuff and check the stalls in the bathroom before you pee.

Just when you think it can't get worse, a student throws a chair that
knocks a stack of papers off your desk. Under the stack you find the
folder with your report cards in them. You see the due date was the 6.
It is the 16.

Just when you think it can't get worse, it is 3:00, the kids are gone,
the overdue report cards are in your bag, and you realize it is only
17 hours until you do this all again.
