Perks of Being a "Grown-Up", #1


Calling my fellow teachers by their first names within earshot of students makes me feel like I'm in some secret, exclusive club.

Don't come to Spain, then. All of the students call the teachers by first names. Maybe it's because they have SO MANY names.

I dunno.

It was good talking to you, friend.

I have always imagined that to be one of the best perquisites of becoming a teacher.

It was amusing at my high school because a number of my teachers were former students. You could tell because they could rarely bring themselves to address the older teachers by name.
