This screen shot makes him look high, oh god 😂
“I went“ or “I was going“. Watch this and you’ll always be right!
Let the excuses for not doing homework commence!
One of the best things about getting Teacher Mark's emails is that I get to see what it's like being a teacher. So now not only do I know the pains and frustrations of being a lawyer, I ALSO get to know the pains and frustrations of being an 7th and 8th grade math teacher. IT'S LIKE RUBBING SALT INTO TWO WOUNDS WITH ONE STONE. Or something like that. I don't know, neither me nor Teacher Mark are grammar teachers, literary similes aren't our forte. What do you want from me.
ANYWAY, about a month after my first run in with Teacher Mark, I thought that this problem was all behind us. But nope! Demanding Mom is on the case!
[Son] had a doctors appt immediately after school today so could not stay to finish up his math project. He will finish up tomorrow if he can.
Thanks.
[Demanding Mom]
Maybe it's just me, but this letter strikes me as particularly audacious. There's no apology for the inconvenience. There's no question as to whether Teacher Mark would be willing to extend the deadline because of a doctor's visit. There's not even a promise that he'll even just turn in the project a day late. Nope, Demanding Mom is, well,demanding. Apparently, in Bizarro Demanding World, the teacher's petty "rules" and "deadlines" and "grading scales" and "syllabi" (Does Teacher Mark believe in syllabi? I hope so! Also, I like the word "syllabi") mean nothing! There's a doctor's visit to be had, you'll be lucky if you get his assignment by next week and you will LIKE IT.
On another note, what kind of math projects are these things? In 7th and 8th grade, I hardly remember math being a particularly project-based affair. Unless this is one of those attempts to make math "fun"? In which case, I wish Teacher Mark the best of luck because that's like Sisyphus pushing the boulder up the waterfall or whatever LOOK WE DON'T HAVE TO KNOW GREEK MYTHOLOGY EITHER.
Of course, I quickly emailed Demanding Mom back to let her know of her mix up and hoping that maybe she'll be a bit nicer to actual Teacher Mark. I probably shouldn't be too surprised that she didn't bother responding.
I hope you all are enjoying the adventures of Teacher Mark because, let me tell you, these things go on for a while. And I just discovered 4 more emails about him today! He is a very happening guy! We could ask him "what's the haps" and he'd say "emails" because he gets a lot of them! Or at least I do? I hope he does. Anyway, until next time!
