Why did you assign
so much learning?
Now it's due
and you have no
time do
what you want
to do.
Seniors are finishing
(or at least their time
with you is ending)
work and demand
points in the gradebook.
Counselors catch kids
and now they want
all their late work --
and could you grade
it all right away.
Oh, and conduct these interviews,
write that plan,
go to that conference,
run that meeting.
Dude,
ya gotta stop
saying
yes
to
ev-
er-
y-
thing.
