During my practicum, there was a saying that keeps me going, especially on Mondays, when it was impossible to beat the Monday blues, or else I would end up giving students a tedious work, just because yours truly was not in the mood to teach. I am just a normal human being, I am not always in the mood. Get what I mean? Geddit? So here is the ‘mantra’
If a doctor makes a mistakes, he kills one patient,
If a bus driver makes a mistakes, he kills 30 passengers,
If a pilot makes a mistakes, he kills 300 passengers,
But if a teacher makes a mistake, he kills the future generation.
I learned this saying when there was a short course for English teachers held in my school, so I am not sure how to cite this, but it is just for sharing my naughty thoughts.
Then how in the world I would kill the future generation kan? So this was really working to get myself going. But then, what if a teacher is killed?
Say, I was killed in an accident, the heading in the newspaper should be
A teacher is killed in an accident, so is the future generation
A teacher is killed in an accident, so is the future generation
Heh. I wish.
So what say you?
