  1. "Right" Doesn't Make "Might"

    Tuesday, April 25, 2017







    Comics, I've been told and have experienced with some, make the worst comedy show audiences.  I was puzzled by that when I was new and still am.  When I hear comedy I like, I laugh and applaud.  






    Teachers, I've been told, tend to make the worst students.  At first I was shocked.  I love learning things (that I want to know).  However, I have noticed how teachers behave in settings where they are supposed to be learning or at least paying attention.  They can be a huge pain in the ass.  Some do exactly what makes them angry when students do it -- cell phones, side chit-chat, not doing their assignment, thinking the rules do not apply to them, etc.  You'd think they'd be understanding when students behave in those ways, but, no, it is what those teachers have no tolerance for.  



    It's never boring working with humans.  

    I've worked at many, many places as an instructor for adults needing their basic education.  Many teachers are amazingly wonderful people.  Then there are those whose voices make you cringe as they echo the voices of angry teachers from our youth yelling at students in anticipation of bad behavior.  Reminds you of why, in spite of learning being a natural in-born desire, you hated school.



    My wish for the yelling ones is to inhale these wise words:

      I always enjoy your "Tuesdays quote. Of course I also enjoy seeing you but I understand if it's not possible. Are you going to put something in the chatbook?

    3. Jessica, I confess that I forgot about the anthology.
