Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 09, 2014
Transcript:
Nate: Why should the teachers have a luxurious lounge to hang out in while the students get zip? Principal Nichols: It's not a "luxurious lounge", Nate. Nate: Oh, really? Have you forgotten I've been inside it? I know you guys have a candy machine in there! I know you've got a soda machine in there! Principal Nichols: (thinking) Now's probably not the time to mention the coffee bar or the panini press. Nate: Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak

Heh. This strip reminds me of a conversation I had with some teachers my senior year of high school, when I had a part-time job as the chemistry lab assistant and had to ask the chem teacher for the keys to the instrumentation room. Among my duties were washing the glassware, mixing up solutions, storing supplies, and basic maintenance like polishing the salt plates on the IR machine. When I went into the men’s teachers’ lounge, they were discussing how zinc enhances men’s sexual prowess.
Chem Teacher: “Robin, do you need something?”Me: “Yes, sir, I need the keys to the IR room, please.”Physics Teacher: “There’s no zinc in there.”
Kind of a “you had to be there,” I guess….

When I taught in a regular school, we did have a stove and fridge most often in our staff room. Even a microwave. Chairs were often a good thing.
