Think about it, can you imagine walking into the classroom after a tough or boring day and looking up to see me. All my charm, charisma and rugged good looks. Man, it must have been a real joy for those students today.
What I did today, well, I did manage to work in the "Don't Get Me Fired" comment I am so fond of a minimum of 35 times, I managed to single out a student in each class and let them know in front of the entire class that they were my favorite and I also managed to pit the different classes against each other over who was most artistically talented. By the end of the day the hallways between classes were filled with discussions about who's class was most talented. A good day! :)
My observations:
1) They don't pay anything! I am really not doing it for the money, more for the opportunity to meet the teachers, administrators, etc...and just in general get a better feel for people in Billings. I also like teenagers. Still I believe you could make more working at the Kwiki Mart.
2) 7th graders are still socially uncomfortable, the 8th graders were pretty chill.
3) It is difficult for me to see any scenario where I eventually don't get kicked out of this job because I don't follow rules so well.
Quick Prayer: Pray for the people I interact with each day. I now have my personal interactions and two work places, one of which is multiple schools. Help me to listen and hear how God is speaking to me about the church through these people.

This is funny! I especially like the "charm and joy" comment.
Did they let you wear your flip flops? lol:)
no flops! :(
Jesus didn't play by the rules all the time either. That's not to say you're like Jesus or anything. Although I'm willing to bet not only did he wear flip flops on the job, but he probably wore the original "Rainbows".
