I have to tell you this funny story (it's short!)

[Bouncy Ball]

One time, when I was teaching evening school (a punishment for the kids), a female coach came striding in and went right up to the female assistant principal standing next to me.

She had a piece of paper in her hand and said "I found this taped to the gym door."

It read, in a teenager's handwriting: "For free BJs, call xxx-xxx-xxxx" (there was a phone number there).

The coach looked seriously at the assistant principal and said, "WHAT did I TELL you about giving those out for FREE?"

The kids were supposed to be totally silent, doing work. I CHOKED.

The assistant principal had to run out of the room because her laughter was about to explode out of her. The coach just walked right back out, never cracked a smile.

I love working with people like that. They just make things so fun.

5. LMAO

The people you work with matters more than the actual job you do, in my experience. I can't believe you managed not to laugh!

7. They were horribly behaved kids.

If I had so much as cracked a smile they would have thought "PAR-TAY!" then I would have had hell getting them back to being quiet and working.

But later? I busted a gut laughing.

I agree, the people you work with make a HUGE difference.
