Thanks for the cookies!

Work Story # 22

A teacher, who we'll call Mrs. Shoester, had made me cookies to thank me for something I had done for her.  He came into my office, so I offered him one of the cookies.  I said, "These are from Mrs. Shoester."  He then said, "That was nice of her" and looked at a student who was sitting at my desk and said, "Oh, thank you for making us cookies!"  The student looked up at me and said, "Did he really think I was Mrs. Shoester?"

My internal dialogue at the moment: It's one thing to not know your teacher's names... It's another to think one of your student's is one of your teachers!  WOW!
