Teacher Implodes

Posted by Jon Henseler on

Yawn. A buddy of mine sent me this video saying it was the craziest thing EVAR! But I honestly don't see what the big deal is here. Like one of my greatest fears in life outside of watching a World Series parade in Wrigleyville is being a teacher. Dealing with kids between the ages of 6-18 all day? Pffft. 'But Jon, they get three full months off to do whatever they want!' Double Pffft. It could be 6 months off and three months of work and I wouldn't consider it. I'd rather write a Bear blog daily than be harassed by high school kids while I try to teach them the Pythagorean Therom. When I was unemployed after college and living at home, waking up at 3pm every day and eating Captain Crunch in my Packer's footie pajamas my mom suggested getting a substitute license to get some work. I told her I'd rather she kicked me out and be homeless than be a substitute teacher. So as far as I'm concerned if you can put up with kids and their parents 9 months out of the year you should be able to do whatever you want to in the classroom. Flip tables, toss chairs, hell have a hardcore match WWE style for all I care.  Seems like the best type of therapy to me. So to this teacher, I ain't mad at 'cha. Teach on my man.

PS: LOVE the :20 second mark where he clearly has a mental battle between losing it completely or reigning it in. Thankfully he chose the former. Or the latter. One of those.
