As a parent, I had to write a note for my son that his little sister had eaten his homework. (I put the leftover pieces in a plastic baggie and stapled the note to it.) I've laughed at this with colleagues many times.
I'm the oldest sister, and that was me except my little brother ate my homework and my mom emailed a photo of the home work to my first grade teacher 😅
Oh my gosh. This is genius. You definitely went above and beyond for your son. ❤
😂 same thing happened with my cousin but with his dog
As a child, one of my dogs did legitimately eat a permission slip... (The same dog went after stuffed animals, and numerous actual food objects including a giant hershy kiss once)... and good lord did no one outside my house believe me.
In 8th grade I watched a kid eat another kids homework. No real reason, he just thought it'd be funny. I had to go to the teacher as a witness 🤦♀️🤣
My cat ate my homework 😂 I walked in to her ripping it up so I took what I could away from her and started recording a video of her trying to get it back from me. Lmao my teacher died laughing the next day and gave me a pass on it.
Same here! Except I was in first grade. 😂
Oh man I have a horror story about being told "you can't go to the bathroom" in elementary school......
I had undiagnosed migraines as a child..... Doctors couldn't find a reason for why a healthy child was getting migraines. Before I was put on medication for it, I would get sick once a week, on average.
Kindergarten had an issue with it until my parents sent in a Doctors note.
1st Grade, no problems when I needed the nurse.
2nd Grade....my teacher thought I was faking it. I had to suffer all day in class, under bright fluorescent lights, frequent bathroom breaks because vomiting is a lovely side effect & I even got sick on the playground during recess.....so miserable by the time I got home & told my parents. They were livid!!!
Never again did my teacher stop me from going to the nurse's office..... But many times I was afraid to ask fearing he would say no.
I was literally told by a parent that a kid ate their homework... "I don't know what happened, Miss Oss. It was completely finished, and was sitting on the table last night. One of the kids must have eaten it! I am so angry that they did that!"
Look at the comment above yours
Toddlers eat anything so it has happened before.
0:27 has anyone else ever noticed that Mrs. Woolley doubles as the bartender? 😂
As a middle school student my math teacher
1.always call in sick
2. She also says that her third block is her favorite
Third block is related arts as in her planning
Here’s to teachers doing their best when some parents are doing their kids a disservice
Yall first
I literally cheated from kindergarten through senior year. Looking back I think “it was so easy, the answers were always in the passage, why didn’t you just read it!!” Luckily I have a daughter who is starting pre k in the fall, so I’ll be able to relearn everything along with her from start to end. Modern day Billy Madison haha
lol oh my god thats too crazy
I just said this to my son.. he just started Highschool and I told We were starting Highschool because I’ll be doing it along with him.. we’ve been having fun lol.. he summarizes each class and we do homework together and check and compare… he’s so competitive it’s actually really helping him 😂
I would like to say, as a teenager I did indeed have my homework shredded by my demon cat. I presented all I could salvage to my teacher and just said "My cat killed it..." lol
I had undiagnosed adhd in HS and I definitely did my hw but forgot it a lot 😭 or I'd have it in my folder but forget to actually turn it in lol. Teachers prob thought I was lying
Lol my go to excuse is as someone who’s also living in sticks, “Sorry I got stuck behind another tractor today on the backroads”😂🙄
I love it when a parent gets so frustrated about the student’s grade or not turning in the work and admits that the parent had done the assignment instead.
My dad is a narcissist with OCD, and when I was in the third grade at eight years old, diagnosed with ADHD with no treatment, plan, medication, and therapy discontinued by him, I would do my homework at the kitchen table, and in the morning it would be gone. Either missing, or in the trash, soiled by food. So I told my teacher that my dad threw away my homework. This went on about five more times, and then my teacher called my mom who had no idea what was going on and told my teacher that I was lying. It made me feel crazy and so I just stopped doing my homework the school then put me in special Ed and I learned nothing in those special bungalows for special kids & because I was so emotionally erratic from being manipulated, they believed I belonged there. Years later my mom found a stack of my hw assignments stashed at my dads work station in the garage.
But through this experience, it taught me to lie. To make up wild lies and believable lies just to survive. So, yah… students make up the craziest shit, but like, also adults are evil & you don’t know what kids are really going through. 🤷🏽
Did you ever ask your dad why he moved them there?
I was the worst liar at school about homework but my teachers thought it was funny so I'd never get in trouble. I'd even tell them "I couldn't be bothered to do it coz it wasn't worth my time but do you wanna hear my excuse" and I'd then go into a crazy story about my nans friends daughters classmates cats best friend 😂
Lol no way 🤣
I had my kids write a sentence or two for each 20 minutes read (for future book reports AND to help them remember what they read). My nephew read 400 minutes in 2.5 weeks to “win” a leopard gecko in the summer reading program (I thought it should’ve been 600+ but I didn’t make the choice). We had her for 6 years before the mom gave it away (I’m the aunt/was a nanny for them).
I was the the student that never did my hw. I did one project, and was carrying it around all day, as I didn't want it to get wrinkled in my bag. I got to class, I didn't have it, teacher took me to the hall and gave me a big lecture about lying, but finally let me go see if I left it in a previous class. I had left it in the study hall room. (I ended up getting an A, and didn't have to do the oral presentation that went with it)
I have actually done my homework and then lost it because I would forget where I put it 🤦♀️ I have a short-term memory issue.
There was a tech error when I went to turn in a really hard science assignment, so I had to redo it twice. I was so annoyed, and the first time I redid it, I took a pick on my phone of my answers, so if I had to do it again, I was just copying them.
That reading assignment log..... man, the memories lol
This was what got me to love books (that & a monthly book club where your reading points earned you purchasing points to choose books to keep -- I had a beast collection of Goosebumps).
My mom was no nonsense & would call my BS out, so she never forged a signature for me (but I did to her lol).
During the 90s (loved that time) in elementary school, we had the Book It club. Best believe, that personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut gave my little self the initiative to read so many books that I earned a lot of free food lol
My school cut out the cheaters for it...... For every book you read, you HAD to write a minimum 1 page book report about the book you read. No one got a free pizza without the handwork....unlike how today's kids cheat & still get rewarded.
But if it wasn't for that & other reading programs in my early school years, I may not have grown up to be an adult who absolutely loves fantasy fiction!!!!
I feel sad for the generations that came after us because tech is not a good replacement for language development & the creativity you obtain through reading.
My elementary teachers are still my absolute favorite that I frequently saw since becoming an adult (I wish I could've ran into all of them).
My brothers and I always did our reading logs. Our mom made it part of our nightly routine to read. It wound up not even being work most of the time for us to get it done.
I’m a few weeks in and I’m still trying to figure out my classroom management. Some classes are better than others and since I’m related arts my management skills can really matter either or not we actually get to the assignment or not. Luckily other teachers already know the deal and are VERY helpful.
Once we had a test and a boy was cheating of of a girl in my class and everyone saw even my teacher (it was on a google form and the questions were all mixed up) everyone was talking about it and he was denying it.
As an eagle scout from a troop that is chartered by the military the roles are switched for the scouts until the scout makes it to eagle. My dad was one of the most funny with his classic "I'm not edumucated" joke during eagle project work days to give the stubborn worker role to help teach the scouts how to lead a team with a stubborn employee or colleague.
I had a student pretend she was going through cancer treatments. She’d missed like 20+ days of my one semester class. Parent was mad at me for not accepting the work she did for the final as it did not meet the prompt in any way, and she submitted it past the latedeadline saying she’d attempted to submit it over a week prior (I read the metadata on the files all were created after the final late grace period). That’s when she brought out her sob story. I checked with the school counselor- it was bull. So I asked her to please type up an email with her reasoning for me to accept this assignment. She went off about her hospitalisations. When I replied to the parent I told him why I couldn’t accept the assignment explaining how it didn’t meet the prompt and evidence of her lying about when it was created - then told him I was proud of her for trying as she was so brave about the hospitalisations.
attached her letter about them with all her lies there.
Got a letter back with a ‘sorry for wasting your time, Ma’am. Thank you for giving me this information.’
Always wondered how that went for her.
My dad used to do all the copies and laminating for his school on top of his job as a first aider. Once somebody broke the laminator and it started smoking setting of the school smoke alarm and wouldn’t own up to it despite my dad knowing who it was who did it they wouldn’t own up to it.
Love the cast !!!! You guys bring the laughter along with the honesty . Love and appreciate all of you ❤❤❤
I had a student in third grade who was late at least three times a week. Spoke with the mother, and she understands. My student comes in late the very next day. When I asked him why, he told me his dog ran away with his leg. Yes, he had a prothetic leg.😊
When I was in high school, my friend was in her science class and they were watching a movie. One of the girls who sat near my friend needed to throw up, but she didn't want to interrupt the movie and so she started vomiting into her own hand and my friend had to tell the teacher so she could go to the bathroom. People shouldn't be made to feel bad if they need to use the washroom, but some kids obviously take advantage of that
The sad thing about the homework is, once i actually left my homework at home thinking I put it in my bag, but instead put a piecse of rubbish that was next to my bag instead of the homework. My teacher didn't believe me and got frustrated at me. Sometimes it's true as I was in a rush , but I understand most kids like about not doing homework
I graduated in 2004 back when they could deny you bathroom breaks or make you take tardies that could give you detention. It was ridiculous because my school was huge and we had five minutes between classes. They would lock all the bathrooms (girl’s) everywhere but the commons because of smoking. There was zero way to get to that bathroom if you had a class all the way in the otherwise of the school. I had a friend that got her period and told the male art teacher and he told her she couldn’t go to the bathroom, so she walked out. I have short gut, which similar to Lauren’s husband means when you have to go you have to go. Things have changed a lot, we had 3 hours of homework a night for honors classes. Kids try to be master manipulators.
But… my dog actually ate my French homework in grade 9… luckily I’m a good student so my teacher believed me even though she gave me a powerful “are you serious?” look.
A school I taught at had cameras in every classroom and hallways. I knew everything was being video taped so I left my cellphone in my desk drawer when I was on lunch duty. A student went into my room during lunch (she had asked to go to the RR) and stole my phone. Even though you could watch every step of it and clearly see it all, she swore it wasn't her and never admitted it. Never apologized.
On the reading log part; my mother would set a timer and WATCH me read😂😂 no cheating in her house
I have a principal at another school in my district that can’t believe/accept that her child does the things I tell her they do…c’mon! I just have to wonder how she deals with problems with students at her school! #Blame the Teacher!!!
42:27 i loved my entire class last year they were my babies ( i teach prek 3) so much so that i had to go find out which prek 4 teachers had my kids
Things that happened to me that my teachers definitely thought were wild excuses: dog ate my art project, math homework stuck to the back of my English paper I turned in the class before, I missed two pages on an English test because they were physically glued together (teacher had to pry them apart to grade them and still didn’t let me retake it), blackboard ran an unscheduled update during a test which I had to get reset on the very last short answer question - generated all new question, printer broke for good as I was printing my physics homework right before class, PDF file would link but wouldn’t open for my Immunology professor for take home tests. This is why my anxiety is always majorly high when an assignment is due, and every email I send with a link has a “please let me know if there are issues” disclaimer.
I remember when I was in middle school the somewhat opposite happened to me. We had this big project due in my history class and I turned mine in. A few days later the teacher asks me to stay after class and asks me why I didn’t turn in the project. I tell him that I did turn it in and tell him my friend can vouch for me, but he doesn’t accept that. So I tell him that I can redo the project but he says that the deadline passed already. I leave the class and I start crying cause I had spent the night before stressing over that project. While I think I forgot to turn in a few assignments in that class I had never tried to finesse myself more time so I have no idea why he accused me of never turning it in. Eventually he found my project but I don’t think he even apologized.
Me and my best friend had the same calc class in high school, she has a bunny… she left her paper on her bed walked out of her room and and when she got back her rabbit had ripped the crap out of it 😂and she calls me and the first thing she says is, “there is nooooo way he is going to believe me if I tell him (teacher) my freaking bunny ate my homework”. We were good friends with our teacher so when she showed him the page and told him he was just laughing with us at the random.
I was late to my online class because i was discussing the baby possum my brother found in our bathroom with my mom. Teacher asked if I was spinning stories and thought I was being stubborn when I insisted. He took a video showing the possum off and talking about it so I sent it over- she saw it during class and just about died laughing.
This reminds me of a time in my precalculus class, my junior year in high school, and we were of a test this particular day so since my table group was next to my teachers desk and a since a couple of table classmates were arguing about whatever it was but they were whispering while arguing and my teacher was so fed up that she whispered back "butt cheeks stop being such a butt cheek, we are in a middle of taking a test...you should be quiet..." or something like that and those of us that heard it started laughing so hard 😂
Once my dog got into my papers and ate a bunch of student tests. They all passed. 😆
I'm a middle schooler and this actually happened where my dog ate my homework. It was on the table and the fan blew it off onto the ground and he got a hold of it and ripped it to shreds. That was an interesting conversation with my teacher.
I remember way back when I was a freshman in high school (we're talking 30+ years) I let the girl sharing the table with me in biology cheat off my test. Our teacher called us out after class and we swore up and down that there was no cheating going on. She told us she would find out when she graded the papers. If we had the same answers she would know we were cheating. Well the girl who I let cheat off my test got a better grade on it than I did (I got a high B and she got a low A). Our teacher had to believe us since we got different grades and we didn't get in trouble. We never tried it again though so I guess her talking to us worked.
I've always had a problem with that, because if it's a question with a right/wrong answer, then you're going to have the same response if you got it right.
i've so much teacher trauma that i'm getting defensive over this already 😂 i was undiagnosed autistic + adhd and had a super abusive home life and i am a compulsively honest person. i would always get accused of lying by teachers when i genuinely was never lying. in 6th grade i had a teacher fail me accusing me of plagiarism for using the word "impregnable" about a fort and i'm still fucking pissed about it because i tested college level on all state aptitude reading/writing tests. my parents always believed the teachers too hahaha and i would get beat so much cause of teachers just not believing me over things.
When I was in high school, my teacher thought I was cheating when I wasn’t. We were allowed to listen to music on our iPods during a test (I had the coolest math teacher ever.) and I was changing songs on my iPod and he thought I was cheating (it was an iPod touch so I was scrolling through my songs trying to pick a different one) and he came up to my desk and looked at my iPod to make sure I wasn’t cheating and he accidentally changed the song on my iPod to “Pour some sugar on me” and he was mortified and went and sat down. He never questioned my honesty again. 😂😂😂
Once when I was in 1st grade my teacher wouldn't let anyone go to the bathroom unless it was recess and several kids peed or pooped on themselves and one day she didn't let me go and I had to so bad my stomach hurt when I got home and I told my family and my older sister took me to the office the next day and called put the principle to do something after all this, they knew about her too.
I legit read with my kids EVERY day, but I always forget to sign the log...
As a parent 1) I almost always believe the teacher because my middle schooler is honestly savage and 2) he has never read for 20 minutes in his entire life and I have always signed his reading logs because it’s not worth fighting about at the end of a long day.
I was in a strict clinical program. However my professor knew I had really bad gi problems and she always gave me an exception to use the restroom during a test
I teach 6th grade, and my go-to when they are lying is to say, "Do you want to tell me that while looking me in the eyes?" It gets them every time. Lol.
In high school my mom said I could only be in the musical if I got one of the lead roles or I had to play tennis. 😢 For some that can be a thing.
I, as an elementary school kid. Who had a new puppy(aka destroyer of all things...at my dads house...and a mother who is a teacher... I had to tell the truth. "My dog ate my homework" we included the paper, the shoe laces, but man as a teacher's daughter.... what do I do now?!? They're never gonna believe me.... etc etc. They did, believe me and it was true. But the anxiety of being a failure as someone who tries... is palpable
as a student who brings every possible thing I may need I have genuinely lost homework in my bags my computer carrier has room to shove papers i needed to find a german assignment had to empty out soo much stuff and it was in there it just took me a week to find but i also have one of those binders thats made to hold your entire lifes work in it and not break and my backpack full of stuff so like I will legit be like I know the worksheet is in here somewhere maybe I will find it next year when i finally clean this thing out
Once I actually deleted the homework and panicked. Luckily there was a thing that allowed me to put it back. This was in 9th grade 😅😅😅
I’m student teaching right now. On Wednesday I had an elementary student throw up all over the test. They then missed the garbage and threw up on the floor and a bit got on me.
As a student, I know every excuse in the book. I know the stereotypical excuses, to the slightly more believable excuses, even the outrageous ones some of my (hopefully former) classmates came up with. But believe it or not, I've never used a single excuse. Never needed to, for that matter. I always made sure to put my homework back in my folder before I went to bed, and I would often times help my big sister and my friends with their homework.
I just found your podcast through YT shorts and I just have to mention that your intro is sooooo cute!
Tells on self for breaking machine with promise of Starbucks *"What would you do-oo-oo, for a Klondike Bar?" 😂
When I taught High School English, I had a HARD deadline for a final assignment because my students notoriously would ignore homework etc. and I had multiple students (who'd clearly worked as a group because their essays covered the same topic even though they were supposed to have different prompts) turn in their papers with a time and date stamp at the top HAND DRAWN at the top.
i remember my friend passed a note to me in the middle of the class (it had nothing to do with the test but i thought the teacher thought it was)i got so annoyed thankfully she didn't get caught but still 😅
I’ve forgotten my homework at home so many times 😭😭
As the Library Media Specialist, I get the excuse of "My mom didn't know it was Library Special today". Ok, the online calendar, the notes on the board, your homework, your teacher repeatedly saying it didn't do it for ya? Also, "My Library book is in the classroom, can I go get it?" So, you went directly from your classroom directly here, but you did not know you needed the library book until you got to the library? sigh.
as a middle schooler i have had my share of seeing people not having their homework it was an assignment that was on the computer but you could copy it i always did it on the computer but this one looked like multiple choice but it was the parts for the two question some kid put it like multiple choice and said this is the wrong one my brother changed it while i was sleeping.
To be fair as a child I said "my parents lost it" because when I was young my mom went though my stuff to throw away but my teachers said I was lying until they messaged my parents about it
My 8th grade English teacher, knew my parents and knew their signatures. I got in trouble and forge my mom’s signature which was basically just cursive. She asked me if I did it, i denied many times, she got eye to eye with me and asked me one last time. I confessed and she made me have my dad sign it bc his signature was unforgeable.
Was wearing a white skirt one time and asked to use the restroom with a teacher who was super strict about bathroom breaks. He said no….Had to go home early after bleeding through. 😂
What a great video! I had that exact thought when S3 started with a different line up. You never know what happenend and so having a bunch of ppl in comments blast yall about why a change has been made oof
Okay listen I told my teacher that my cat ate my homework
Well she did! My parents even wrote a note and she even chewed my binder also she’s a bath odd cat😊
If u wanna know the rest but don’t wanna watch an 8 minute video: basically the husband had tried to beat Kendra to death, then called a friend who is a trucker to come get her body. She was found in a ditch in cali. After mom told him about her calling, Dad re dialed the number cause he thought he had actually succeeded in killing her and was confused. There she told what happened. Mom hit dad with a lamp, making him go unconscious and locked him in the basement.
when I was in 3d grade of high school (dutch high school that is, at 15/16 years old) a buddy of mine lived 2 minutes away from our school, no trains, bridges or large body's of water anywhere on his 2 minute route to school, came in 2 hours late one day....
when the teacher asked him why he was so late, he answered:
"sorry sir, I was stuck in traffic behind (!) a train, because the bridge was up, because that flying pink elephant had to get through and wouldn't fit when the bridge was down..."
the teacher had to fight his laughter so hard he just let him sit down without any further repercussions
I remember one time in 7th grade math class I lied about doing a homework assignment. He started.having students read the answers as he went through the rows so I got caught once it was my turn. This teacher would have students call their parents when they got in trouble so I remember I had to call my mom 😭 only time I lied lol
My dog ate my home work, my dad and i spent HOURS taping paper back together 😢😂😭 and i mean hours it was so much paper when i told my teacher and gave her what i had and the note she was like oh i guess that did happen....yes yes it did 😭
I love ❤❤❤ these podcasts 💜🩵🩷
The Pizza Hut thing has been a long time! My husband did that when he was a kid, and we’re in our 40s.
My dog once took my homework and started eating it so I grabbed it and turned it in and said my dog ate it
My Granddaughter went through that during the height of Covid. A paper was due on a curtain day by 7 am. And she did the assignment and turned it in on time. At the very last minute. But it was still on time. And the next actual in school day. Her teacher pulled her aside and said what's going on you never turned it in. And you turn in EVERYTHING. why didn't you do it? And she cried and was really upset because the teacher didn't believe her and was refusing to accept her answer and told her if she turned it in tonight she would grade her a mark lower since it was late. And that afternoon she told her Mom what had happened at school. And my daughter called the teacher and said she wasn't lying. I read the paper just to check her homework to see if there was anything she should add or take out. And then I watched her send the email. Check again maybe it went to spam or something. And sure enough my Granddaughter found she had sent it. But it was sent as the previous days assignment not that days. They screen shot the screen showing the paper was sent on the proper day before the time cut off just not to the correct assignment folder. And the teacher still tried to give her a lower grade because it was late. So my daughter called the Principal. And he backed up the teacher UNTIL my daughter proved to him that the assignment was sent on the correct day before the cut off. And he back stepped and corrected the teacher telling her that she couldn't do that the assignment was turned in on the right day and was accidentally just turned in to the wrong file. That's not fair to give her a lower grade when the paper was turned in on time. After that day the teacher was always unfair to my Granddaughter. Making comments like oh watch out she'll tell her Mommy on you, or she'll cry to the Principal if you don't give her her way. And at the end of the year was transferred to a different school in the district. So sorry Mrs Wooley that computer screen doesn't always tell you the correct story either.
As a student. When I was in 5th grade there were multiple kids that were selling Gfuel, wild
As an ADHD kid, there were definitely times when I would do an assignment and then misplace it because #objectpermanence 🤪, but I’m pretty sure there was more than one math assignment that I just didn’t do and tried to say I lost it to buy more time 🤷🏻♀️
My parents were super strict so they made me sit down in front of them and made me read for 20 minutes and if I did something other then read they restarted my time
Stupid reading logs. I signed my daughters when she read from 1st to 6th grade. Beginning of 7th grade, I sent it back with a note letting them know that I'm done with it. She was 13 at that point and was reading over an hour of homework a night. SMH
I “forged” my parents initials on my reading log in 6th grade
1. Had permission
2. Was stupid
3. I forged nothing I just wrote my initials that are also my parents initials in the box
Teacher held 2 meetings with my parents and demanded I go to therapy for my disturbing behavior
As a prek teacher, a parent told me that devil made my son do it. In regards to his behavior.
Speaking from the Admin clerk who has to fix/call the printer and copier company, just tell the clerk. The amount of times i had to fix the printer on my break was soooo annoying. Please just tell them its broke, i didnt care who broke it i just didnt want to fix it on my break.
I wanna say it was the 3rd grade, I knew for a fact I turned it in and the teacher kept yelling at me saying "so it grew legs and walked away" I 100% knew I turned it in
I made it through college despite teachers, not because of them.
😂 " have u ever done dat? " lol
A few weeks ago in my science class me and two other people had to do a presentation and the day before the whole slide show disappeared and like my teacher looked through my whole chrome book and my two friends that had it shred with them and we couldn’t find it. I still don’t know what happened to my slide show but I didn’t have to do the presentation and it didn’t effect our grade 😭😂
Real note sent to the teacher, “Please excuse my sister for being late. Mom is gone and daddy helped.”
We had to call the ambulance for a kid who did the hot chip challenge and then freaked out.
Looking through your bag for your homework can happen though I remember we had a packet one year my sophomore year, and I looked all in my bag. I took out my textbook and flipped through everything and maybe I left it in the page no when my teacher got onto me and was accusing me lying so during our break, we got a 15 minute break. I called my mom and I was like, can you please go look at my room and see if I left this assignment at home and she did and that’s where my assignment was and she had to bring it to school and to this day I am now 25. No apology from the teacher or anything however, I also understand that a lot of kids do lie about stuff.
5 min in and as someone with a disability and works in tech support for 6 years these are offensive and super unsupportive teaching mentalities. Yeah if it's not in "Sorry idk what happened but it didn't transmit all the way through I can't give a grade for something that didn't submit, but I get how upsetting this can be" is a good stance. But legit there's a large number of students who legit do their work and lose it. And many of them have a disability even the teachers aren't always made aware of. And that's where this definitely hits wrong.
I cheated on a spelling test in 1st grade. The word was caterpillar (tbh spell check just corrected me when I just spelled it now too 🤦🏻♀). I was caught by a student who tattled on me while I was ripping the scrap paper I used to cheat into the trashcan...
Hi I have a quick question I would really like you guys to do all about the dyslexia kids that maybe you guys had in your class😅
In like second grade my car threw up on my homework and I cleaned it up… and brought it to school….
Book It! is/was the name of the reading incentive program through Pizza Hut. Those personal pan pizzas were *quite* the reward!!! 😋🍕⭐
And then there's the parents that do the homework for their child and are surprised that we can tell. Ma'am, I can tell the difference between your grade schooler's capabilities and yours.
