This note sums up the hard life of a substitute teacher

Saints, every one.

You have to feel for substitute teachers - drafted in last minute to a classroom of kids they don't know, who are ready to run riot at the first hint of weakness.

This sub took notes beginning at 8.30am - and it just sounds like the longest day, involving everything from fart competitions to spilled milk.

It reads in full:

"8:30 Jackson won't stop yelling "peanuts". Janelle has spilt her milk + fruity pebbles everywhere, everyone won't stop laughing, I can see her about to explode. I fear for the safety of these children.

9:15 Dylan has started a dance party in the corner, at first it was just the boys, after Geneva joined, it’s taken over half the class.

10:00 The fart noises haven’t stopped for 30 minutes. It started with a real fart. I suspect Hugo. Now they’re arguing which one of their fake farts would smell worse.

1:00 The decibel level in this room has reached an unhealthy level. I’ve fashioned ear plugs out of broken crayons. Please let me survive this.

2:00 The end is in sight. I said the words “free time” and it was as if this room was hit by a bomb.

3:00 They’re gone, finally. I spent the second half of my day drafting my letter of resignation. The name Jasmin appears no less than eight times."

Who's Jasmin and what did she do?

We love the blind optimism of the printed message at the top of the page: "Let me know how the day went!

Do you really want to know?
