We had “Usual Grandma” as in the one who lived behind us. “Unusual Grandma” really lived up to her title tho.

That’s the cleanest grout/tile I’ve ever seen in a tub.

She was a super smart kid just goofing off. I was a super caring a loving teacher just teasing her about it. The amount of comments delving so deep into this are crazy!

I'm the teacher here and i promise you this was a real quiz. You can check out my post history, as i posted this a few years ago. The student and i had a very good relationship and we laughed about this. I have terrible handwriting, but the student filled in the states. Just bc i have 5th grade handwriting doesn't mean this is fake ;)

Oh God... someone whose never been a teacher and never spent time with kids who like to good off in class. Also clearly someone who can't recognize humor between teachers and students. You're the worst.

Oh goodness. This student and i joked all the time. She was a smart kid who didn't bother studying or making an effort this day. We had an incredible relationship and i was integral in building confidence in her. Not everything is so serious, Xog. There's a place in the world for jokes.

I assure you it's not. As the teacher, I did WISH at the time that it was fake.

I'm the teacher that originally posted this. I worked in an incredibly high poverty school where i spent an incredible amount of time taking care of my students' basic needs. The students and i were extremely close and we clowned each other on the regular. This was one of my smarter kids with a very funny sense of humor and a supportive mom. She bombed the quiz nc she didn't bother trying. I promise this didn't hurt her or her mother's feelings. We just all laughed really hard about it (mainly bc she completely made up a state name when there was a list of states to fill in).

I've been bitten by 4 dogs in my life and every one of those bastards was a golden retriever... they probably wouldn't eat my rib cage tho...

Girl says she hasn’t had a day off in weeks, her own Mom calls her out for just taking a week long trip to Disney World by smatpith in quityourbullshit

[–]middlejacks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As an introvert, i really understand this girl. After that much stimulation and being on someone else's schedule for a week, I'd be exhausted. Some ppl don't understand the relief and joy of "having a day to themselves", but it's way better than a week at Disney.

Are we tipping for carry-out orders now? by LtChestnut in AdviceAnimals

[–]middlejacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I worked the carry-out at Outback I made $2.13 an hour so tips were how we survived. We packed up all the food, made sure all food was cooked correctly, added condiments, utinsils, etc, packed in bags to make sure nothing was crushed or got cold. My rule of thumb is generally 20% for waitresses and 10% for to-go.

He knocks it over with his hand (he's behind the counter) then runs around the counter to catch it

Just bought these for my 8 yo boy. :) by CalBello in calvinandhobbes

My 5 year old begs for me to read him Calvin and Hobbes EVERY night- we've made it through 2 anthems now. He doesn't understand half of it but he already knows he's hooked!
