At the beginning of the year, I signed up as a sub for lunch duty. Lunch duty is not required for teachers, but if you do lunch duty, you get paid a little (emphasize LITTLE) extra and you get a free school lunch. Several teachers choose to do lunch duty regularly (even a little bit counts - plus you get free lunch!) and when they are at trainings or sick, they contact me to be a sub.
Today was my 3rd day in a row being a sub for lunch duty due to teachers being sick. Boo. I don't mind lunch duty too much, but sometimes I just want to sit and relax for 25 minutes and eat my lunch and talk with friends! haha (I'm so needy sometimes.)
Yesterday had a funny moment though. I was in charge of watching the door going from the lunch area hallway to the main office area. Students who have neon yellow library passes can go through the door to the library. No one else can pass (it would be way too chaotic to have random students wandering the school while other classes are going on).
While I was watching the hall, one student said, "Hey! Some students are going through the main office to go to the library!"
I opened the door and confronted a boy who was heading to the library. I told him that next time he needed to go through the main doors. While still walking, he said, "Okay." I told him I needed to see his library pass and he flashed a neon yellow paper at me...while still walking. I told him I needed to actually SEE the yellow paper. At that point, he said, "Aw man!" He just had a ripped yellow piece of paper and was trying to get by without a real library pass.
Don't worry, I'm a really good door keeper.
Ironically, another student had mentioned earlier that day that students could easily just flash a yellow piece of paper and I wouldn't know if it was real or not (I wasn't looking at every student's library pass individually).
Hopefully all the teachers are healthy and well tomorrow so I can enjoy my lunch period. On the plus side, today was the free Thanksgiving dinner provided by the cafeteria. :)
