In 10 minutes I have to make my way down to the gym for the annual student Spirit Bowl. Two hours in a large box with few exits filled to brimming with 2400 stomping, shouting, competing, hormone-driven, frontal-lobe-not-yet-fully-developed adolescents. Freshman vs. Sophomore vs. Junior vs. Senior. I've taken my 600 mg of ibuprofen in advance, I'm in my running shoes, but it never gets any easier. I simply don't trust crowd mentality. Teenagers in large groupings = anarchy.
Heaven help me. Include me in your prayers.

Your title should be "Another Reason That We Know Teachers Are Underpaid," because it doesn't really explain why we are.
May the Lord bless you in this time of trial.
If you can't beat them (literally...you can't), then join them, right? Hey, that's what those tenni-runners are for. Good luck. I honestly get a chuckle just thinking about the kids' giddy faces and the teachers' looks of death.
Bless you my child. Bless you.
I like your equation.
"Teenagers in large groupings = anarchy."
Glad you went with your running shoes tied on tight. :)
That seriously exceeds my person-per-square-footage ratio.
