Today a student had me talk to their mom on the phone to explain that yes, they really did have a field trip today, and yes, that does happen in college, and normally at this point (in my admittedly limited experience with calls like that) the next question is less a question and more a ‘well that’s dumb, don’t you think that’s dumb’
but this lady asked me if snacks would be provided and if so what kind because her son was a picky eater & this poor boy is just bright red and yelling from the back seat that he packed his own lunch and snacks & mom (who is very aware she’s on speaker phone) goes ‘sorry for loving you and worrying about you, you little shit’ which made him just screech the word ‘mom’ like he was a tween in full angst mode
& as of right now I’ve heard two students do radio checks on the other field teams where they signed off with ‘sorry for loving you and worrying about you, you little shit’ which gives me a very unprofessional case of the giggles
