staffroom conversation

This happened at break today. I'm teacher #2.

  • Teacher #1 (a fellow English teacher): I have to teach Bible this semester. I've never taught Bible before. I don't know what I'm doing. (Or something along those lines.)
  • Principal: nods sympathetically. Smirks a little
  • T#1: You should really just hire someone to teach all the Bible.
  • Principal: agrees
  • T#2: I'll teach Bible!
  • Principal: looks at T#2 with astonishment, pulls out his little black book, stares mischievously at T#2 and writes "Margaret will teach Bible".

I may have just talked myself into a job for next year.

That sounds promising!
Thanks for calling the other night...although I was a bit confused. Is there another Sara with a February birthday? I have 2 more months to go!

Keep at it over there...

Way to go!!!
There's nothing like blind enthusiasm to get your contract renewed.
