I was a teacher but then I decided to go into comedy so I could sleep in an drink while being heckled by my audience

That's a good one.

You know how there is that one teacher who made a huge difference in your life? Or said that one perfect thing you needed at that exact moment ? Well, I’ve learned that I am NOT that teacher and I’m ok with that.

I feel the same way. I'm not the teacher who tries to be friends with her students. I let them know I care, share jokes with them, let them have opportunity to talk if they need to, but I'm not letting them do TicTocs and Snapchats in my room.

Oh, yeah. Made me chuckle!

I am a teacher and part time comedian and author. I talk about teaching for comedy. I had a small group of three, two boys and a precious little girl. We were reading about the origins of their names. This 1st grader said she was named after a porn star Lexis Texas. The boys lost it. I came home to a no porn policy on our shared home computer just to see if she was telling the truth. That was a real deal!!!

Oh, my!

Class, class... one two three applause on me! But seriously, I'm only here because teaching doesn't pay the bills.

Hi, I am looking for a full time content writing role. (1.5 years of experience)

I have a in person(online, 4 hours - 4 people) technical interview coming up and I have been practicing my coding for the past 3 weeks. The only thought I've been having is "what if I can't solve the coding question?" I am still fairly new to the software engineer scene and the position is for a level 1 software engineer.
Does it essentially end my chances if at any point I can't solve the question? I mean I will definitely attempt to talk it through, ask question, but no progress in code. 🤷
