Busy Bagwells

I am a very impatient person. When I was a kid I used to wonder why my dad was so short tempered and got mad at us so easily. I am beginning to understand. Teenagers. That is why he was like that. That is why I am becoming that way. I can't stand them. Why am I a teacher? I have no idea! Today my 6th period class came in and they were so loud and talkative. I asked them to take their seats when the bell rang and there were some files listed on the board that they were supposed to download to their computers. While they were doing that I passed back some papers. They were talking the whole time. After they all got the files, I was set up ready to teach the lesson and they were still talking. I gave them 2 warnings that if they continued to talk then they could do the lesson on their own and they did. So right now they are figuring out the hardest lesson in PowerPoint all on their own. I know it is mean and probably not fair but I am not going to compete with them. I am so sick of this! I am never teaching 8th grade again!
