Funny exchange, 2003-05-12, 7:41 p.m.
Funny exchange today. I walked into the staff room, having to pee. Seeing that the bathrooms were taken, I went and read the bulletin board, looking at the postings. A sub was at the table. The exchange goes something like this:
Him: So, what grade are you in?
Me: (thinking he means, in which grade do I teach) I'm in learning resources Him: You help in learning resources - that's great. But you are a student, right?
Me: Actually, I'm a teacher. I'm almost 27.
Him: Really! It must be that school girl look. I teach in a k-9 school. That means he thought I was, at most, a grade nine. I was wearing a plaid skirt, a t-shirt, black tights and black sneaker mary janes with a white platform. Not quite the teacher look, but not a school girl look either. It's funny. Wonder what he would have thought when I had my hair in braids on friday?
