What Are You Thinking?


Kiss Your Teachers

I don't mean to be snobbish. I know that it takes people from all walks of life to make this society work. In these trying economic times, just having a job can be everything. God bless those of us who put themselves into danger or just dirt every day to earn a living.

However.

If your job involves riding at the top of a stack of cinder blocks at 35mph higher than the walls of a construction vehicle, you're not in the right line of work. You never know when some idiot in an SUV is driving distracted behind you holding up an SLR camera in front of his face to discretely take your picture just before slamming into your truck at every one of those thirty five miles per hour.

I'm going home to kiss my diploma and polish my SLR.

If you've got a job where people are not likely to use your image as a "Don't Let This Be You" cautionary tale, thank a teacher today.

You're welcome!
Well, I'm not exactly a teacher, but I like to think that I teach others by example. Don't be like me!
