Just Another Day at "Work"

I say it all the time but I don't mean it. After all, it is one of those phrases that is used colloquially. Now that my justification is clarified, I admit that I lie to people everyday when I tell them, “I have to go to work.” It is not my fault that work doesn't feel like work. Think about it, important things are still getting done and minds are still being enlightened. It's not hard or laborious, but that doesn't mean I'm lazy.

Most of the time I feel like I'm an active contributor to the staff, but I can't help it if working with kids in an after-school program sometimes puts one in a child-like disposition. I hope that my co-workers are of the same mind, cause let's be honest, a work environment needs to be kept interesting. Everyone knows being a good role model, helping with homework, and providing fulfilling activities are all second in priority to building a sweet tower of pudding cups.
