Do they know I make less than 90 dollars a day?


Because it’s easier to wax your own pits than find a teaching job these days … I am a licensed educator working as a lowly substitute teacher.  And did you know, substitute teachers are “the help” of public school society?

Really, I hear it all!  Their struggles, their triumphs, and yes, even their sex life kids talk so freely around me it would make your head spin.  Last week I heard why an average hormonal young man really wears “I heart Boobies” bracelets. I heard about shop-lifted shoes and who’s really on the pill.

I sub in a rural American school district somewhere between nowhere and the Atlantic Ocean.  This school is pretty typical of small town Americana, which makes me wonder: are American teens trusting, are they brave or do they just know I make less than 90 dollars a day and figure they can buy me off if I ever talk?  … I’ll keep you posted.
