'You are a real pain on Fridays!': 20+ messy teacher moments for the back-to-school season

Back-to-school season is among us, which means that we are officially dealing with the best and worst teachers among us. Look, as the child of a teacher, I have an immense amount of sympathy for most educators. However, in every industry, there are people who are straight-up trash at their jobs. You can find these individuals in business meetings, behind the front desk of a doctor's office, and in our classrooms. Unfortunately, there is no known cure for stopping some people from being bad at their jobs. Even the perfect resume cannot fully predict how someone will teach and how students will embrace (or repel) them.

Here, we have a collection of anecdotes from former students about the worst teachers they have encountered during their formative coming-of-age years. Keep scrolling below for these stories. For more content like this, check out this compilation of ridiculous rules that make absolutely no sense.
