labels

Labeling people is bad. Labeling office supplies is good.

I have not outgrown pranks. Today White Glue and I snuck into an administrator’s office with a label maker and personalized things to help him out. He can now find Rick’s favorite pencil, Rick’s second favorite pencil, a ring around his chair marked Rick’s personal space, and seat of the chair as Rick’s very personal space. We made about 30 labels.

I sometimes ask students what they’ve done to bring joy into their teachers’ lives. This is my way of sharing joy with one of my bosses without taking any credit. Does it count as a minor act of heroism?
