So I just went for a meeting with the principal of a local school regarding my student teaching placement for my degree.

The first thing he says to me when he steps out of his office is "I will be right with you, Hayley. I just have to go clean up some vomit."

I thought *great*, only just set foot in the door and already I have to have an experience with vomit.

He stepped into a door right behind me which was the first aid room, and walks out with two buckets. Obviously full of sick. Nice. (Note sarcasm).

I then said to him "so does this happen a lot around here?" And he said that it happens fairly regularly both in the first aid room, and sometimes in the classroom.

Not looking forward to this part of my future job!
