You Have to Be a School teacher If
You have no time for a life from the end of August until Mid-July.
You want to slap the next person who says, 'Must be nice to work from 8.30am to 3.15pm and have your summers and weekends free.'
When you're out in public you feel the urge to talk to strange children and correct their behaviour.
You refer to adults as, 'boys and girls.'
You encourage your spouse by telling them they are a 'good helper.'
Meeting a child's parents instantly answers the question, 'Why is this child like he is?'
you believe 'extremely annoying' should have its own box on the report.
You know hundreds of 'good' reasons for being late.
You don't want children of your own because there isn't a name you can hear that wouldn't raise your blood pressure.

The teacher asked her class of 8 year olds to use a sentence containing the word fascinate
Molly put up her hand and said, 'My family went to my granddad's farm, and we all saw his pet sheep It was fascinating.' The teacher said, 'That was good, but I wanted you to use the word 'fascinate', not fascinating'.
Sally raised her hand. She said, 'My family went to see Rock City and was fascinated.'
The teacher said, 'Well, that was good Sally, but I wanted you to use the word 'fascinate.'
Little Johnny raised his hand. The teacher hesitated because she had been burned by Little Johnny before. She finally decided there was no way he could damage the word 'fascinate', so she called on him.
Johnny said, 'My aunt Gina has a sweater with ten buttons, but her bosoms are so big she can only fasten eight.'

A nursery school teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing Christmas scenes. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.
As she got to little Sarah who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. Sarah replied, 'I'm drawing God.' The teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like.'
Sarah replied, 'They will in a minute'

How to Handle Job Rejection Positively
An example of not taking 'No' for an answer.

Vice President
Company 509
509 Wall St.
New York, NY 10047
Dear Mr. Ryan,
Thank you for your letter of February 17th. After careful consideration I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me employment with your bank.
This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.
Despite Company 509's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time. Therefore I will initiate employment with your firm immediately following graduation. I look forward to seeing you then.
Sincerely,
James Pearson

Good morning everyboomie.
Well I must have walked 2 miles today from one end of the creek to another, and didn't find anything but heartache and disappointment.
All of the rocks that I looked at were innumerable. I know because I lost count somewhere after a billion and forty some-odd thousand.
I need another flash flood event, and I'm not talking about my toilet running over.
The last time that happened I didn't find any points at all.
I had a customer whom I had sold a mower to last Summer, that told me I could come and walk around his place to look for arrowheads, with a good chance of finding some. Well I've been waiting for a good time because he lives over 40 miles from here. I tried calling him all day Sunday to set it up, but he never answered his phone, or returned my calls. I can only assume that he's changed his mind.........or, he died and CAN'T answer his phone.
Just see if I ever sell HIM another mower.
It's difficult to find people that will let you look on their property.
I'm just so happy that the guy who bought our place told me I can come back and walk around his property anytime I like.
Well it's time to get my pacifier and get to bed. Early rise tomorrow.
Have a happy day everyone.
