I've gone a while without seizures, so I feel like I'm ready to start working again. The trouble is, I'm gonna have a pretty big gap on my resume. I don't want to get stuck having the kind of job where you have to wear a name tag made from a label gun... basically anything where I'd be afraid of somebody I went to high school with seeing me.
My wife and I were hanging out with another couple and the guy is a special ed teacher. He suggested teaching to me. I'm not ready to give up my disability just yet in case my seizures were to start up again, but I'm okay as long as I keep my earnings under a certain amount. SO I decided to be a substitute teacher.
I called the superintendent's office and his assistant had me call Kelly Educational temps. THey made me take a test, which I passed. I also had to get fingerprints to make sure I'm not a nutjob... well, at least not the dangerous kind.
Now I've just got to get letters of recommendation. That was the hard part since I've been housebound for a while.
I told my daughter she might come into her class one day soon and find me in there cracking dad jokes. "Hey, I'm Katie's dad! Extra credit to the first guy who asks her to prom!" She groaned at first and said, "Wait a minute... you'd be able to write up anyone who pisses me off."

I started to feel bad for the woman! She just wanted to go to a comedy club, get drunk and laugh. Instead, her career is trashed and she gets roasted. I think the whole hero thing came about because teachers have to put up with a whole hell of a lot of shit for not much pay. They're so touchy now they don't even want you to look like you might be about to touch a kid. If one of them gets hurt or upset, you're supposed to hold a stuffed animal out to them or something rather than hug them. I'm a 200lb + guy. I look sort of like Stan SMith from American Dad. THe first time I'm forced to call the office to break up a fight because of this policy, I'm going to feel like a real wuss.
Norm's right, though. I'm sure as hell not doing this to be a hero. I just don't want to have to be a greeter at Walmart or something. That and I want to finally beat that smug bitch Peggy Hill out for the Substitute Teacher of the Year Award.

Yikes! Now Peggy Hill would be led from the school in handcuffs. Though, today, it's usually the hot 20-something teachers who seem to be reaching for middle school boys' pants. What the hell is up with that? Where the hell were all these hot horny teachers when I was a teenager in need of the sort of self esteem boost that only losing your virginity to a hot older woman could give?
That video makes me shudder because when I was getting my recommendations, I was worned twice. "Don't let them put you with middle schoolers. For the love of God, don't let them stick you in the middle school!"
