Another day as a teacher always proved to be different every single day. Here's an example.
A typical day.
Cheecher: Good morning class
Class: Good mouuuurningg sir....
Class resumes with the Cheecher having to go through grammer with them. Two students in front looked a little lethargic and one of them requested for a toilet break. Granted. 5 mins later, the partner asked for the same request. Granted.
10 mins have passed and there are no signs of the first student. Suddenly, a student from the back row moved himself slowly to the back door, clutching his stomach.
Cheecher: Where do you think you are going young man?
Student: Toilet cher. Cannot take it already. -still clutching his stomach and edging himself nearer to the back door.
Cheecher: No. You sit down and wait for your fellow friends.
Student: Cannot take it cher. Really. -slowly edging himself to the door, almost making it and suddenly dashed out of the door.
If it was that urgent, I'd guess, I could make an exception. 15 mins have passed and still no signs from the first and second student.
Hmmmm......
Cheecher: Class, you remain seated while I search for your friends.
Off I went to the toilet, just one class away from mine. With so many different scenarios in my head, I tried to anticipate anything out of the ordinary.
As entered the men's room, I could not believe my eyes. For the first time, I saw 2 guys,
SLEEPING ON THE TOILET FLOOR!!
The student who was clutching his stomach, was squatting down and talking to these two clowns.
I shouted at the boys and told the one who said he had stomachache to go to the toilet now and shit.
For the other 2, I slow talked with them and rationalized their actions and how we should give each other mutual respect instead of acting like small kids and me having to reprimand them. That worked, and now, no more toilet break requests from them.
The guy who went to shit, I gave him only 3 mins to do his business. He came back rushing.
