The Daily BuzzSubstitute teacher's note recaps chaotic day in classroom
The life of a substitute teacher is difficult. An unfamiliar classroom, a new curriculum, and, not to mention, a group of unknown children.
For one substitute teacher, spending the day in a new classroom was not only chaotic and loud, but also extremely smelly.
In a note posted to Imgur, the sub describes the day in all its hilarious and fart-ridden glory, offering a glimpse into the not-so-easy job of teaching.

The handwritten note, complete with spilled milk, scattered cereal, and uncontrollable laughing, has gone viral since being shared on Reddit, gathering almost two million views, according to the Daily Mirror.
The note concludes with the stand-in teacher contemplating, understandingly, a career change.
Full text from note:
8:30am: Jackson won’t stop yelling “peanuts,” Janelle has spilt her milk and fruity pebbles everywhere, everyone won’t stop laughing, I can see her about to explode. I fear for the safety of these children.
9:15am: 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.
10:00am: 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. It’s almost time for specials. I’m scared that once I drop them off I won’t find the will to pick them up.
1:00pm: 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.
2:00pm: The end is in sight. I said the words “free time” and it was as if this room was hit by a bomb.
3:00pm: 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.
