Last Monday I got called for "school business" and the school was going to need ten subs. Sounds like my kind of day!
I love roving-type assignments. You're not stuck in one classroom all day. It's more likely that you'll get a chance to see the teacher and give verbal notes (rather than the written down kind). And it just feels less like work somehow.
Turned out that two groups of teachers were having meetings, one group for periods 1-3 and the other for periods 4-6. The secretary assigned us subs to a teacher for periods 1-3 in kind of the order that we arrived for the day.
After 3rd period, we turned in our key for the first three periods. The secretary had a pile of keys for the remaining classes. She dug in and pulled out a key at random.
And the winner was...room 710.
To a certain extent, my assignments can be a bit luck-of-the-draw. This day more so than others, though.
(For the record, all were English classes, and only one class was difficult. The difficult class settled nicely once I warned them that names would be taken.)
