It's always weird, the moment you get old enough and realize that the teacher is just another person. And then you get a little older than that and realize that the teacher is a person who's at work, and like all jobs, it can suck. It doesn't make us reflect on our academic careers more fondly, but it does put things in a different perspective. Most notably, a perspective that makes it a little more obvious why you always watched a movie on the days after major drinking holidays.
Being a teacher is a rough gig. If you do your job terribly, you could be creating a future criminal. And if you do your job terrifically, you could still be creating a future criminal. Life just kind of works out that way. Anyway, here are teacher memes, which have the same hopeless vibe as work memes. It's as enlightening as it is understandable and disappointing.
