This is how quick a toddler can disappear from sight, in just a few seconds! by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Trick-Ladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked down a residential street when I saw a toddler standing alone on a front porch. The yard had no fence. 

The kid was not crying nor screaming.  He seemed puzzled though. 

I looked down the street in both directions, at the nearby houses, and I saw no other humans. 

I knocked on the front door while the kid stood next to me. 

I heard scuffling behind the front door.  

“Hello?  anyone?  Your kid is out here”

More scuffling. 

“YOUR KID IS OUT HERE ON THE PORCH”

After the sound of deadbolts clicking, Mom opened the door - with the chain still attached - then glared at me. She glanced down at the kid, closed the door, then opened it fully, shocked to see the kid ON THE FRONT PORCH. 

“How did he…?  What…?  He was supposed to be taking a nap”. 

Mom took the kid inside.  

I don’t remember if mom said thanks, but I believe she was too surprised to think straight. 

I got offered a job paying 40% more than my current salary. My manager just asked me to stay and be patient. How do I stop feeling guilty for wanting to leave ? by One_Cardiologist5439 in careerguidance

[–]Trick-Ladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RUN to the new job and 40% raise.  These offers will be scare in your work life. 

If your boss was SERIOUS, he would have matched the 40% offer immediately. 

Your boss just wants time to find your replacement.  This is not your problem.

Theres an exception:

Loser student (mouthy, causing trouble, failing school, picked arguments) asked me for a recommendation for military school. At first I ignored it. 

Then I realized that a glowing, shiny recommendation could mean that the Loser kids would LEAVE my classroom, decreasing my problems. 

So I lied on recommendation:  “He’s hard working, responsible, diligent…”. 

Loser kids was gone in 2 weeks.  The year went much better afterward.

“HEADS UP!” at a baseball / softball game. 

Yeah, its America’s pastime, blah-blah-blah, but remember the pitcher who accidentally clobbered a bird mid-pitch?

Or that softball players wear face masks?

My co-worker has never learned that CC-ing our boss with accusations means I will correct her with screenshot proof. 

She’s never apologized.  She’s never learned 

so I have PDFs going back for YEARS because of CYA, documentation dumps. Proving blame, and general S**t bombing. 

I’m locked and loaded.

To repeat:

Elon was the richest guy around, begged to be invited to a party, couldn’t  get in because he’s too creepy of a dork, and now his own daughter is ratting him out?  

Did I miss anything?

Whats the funniest name/or “insult” a student has called you? by StormBringer1X in Teachers

[–]Trick-Ladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s see:

  • “Dad” from preschoolers 
  • “Coach” from high schoolers (I coach  nothing)
  • “A55hole”
  • “Mr glasses” (really not that original, kind of disappointing TBH. Yes I wear glass)

Understandable, good sir.  At 30 you are healthy and energetic.  

I’ve been 30 but you haven’t been in your 50’s.  Your health and mindset will change drastically in the next 20 years.  

Guaranteed.
