I still remember this one teacher I had in high school, not for what she taught but for this one interaction we had.
We were going around the classroom and listing off professions that started with whatever letter of the alphabet we were given. I ended up with “R” and I just said “Rodeo Clown.”
I don’t know why, but she seemed so indignant about looking it up and seeing if it was an actual profession. When she found it was she seemed so off=put by the idea that it was and that they made money from it???
I don’t know, it was just really weird. As if she didn’t like that it ended up next to “normal” professions like Real Estate Agent, and Restaurateur.
