"Subbing has it's good days and it's bad days." - ktmiller222 This! So much this! In any room, I always give a little beginning speech. For...
I feel for you. I once got called in to a room around 11:30 for a teacher that needed to leave. As she left she mentioned that there was a...

Red flag! The water pressure is a HUGE issue and not likely to be covered with $2000. If you are serious about the house, hire a company to...

Not sure if it's the pregnancy hormones or what. I've been subbing for a very long time, but I just dread the thought of going to work now. I...
These are so funny! Keep 'em going!
OMG! One time in high school this happened to my class. We were just all sitting there hanging out for about 30 minutes until the Principal...
