You Gave Them an Award for What!?

Can you believe the lies some people tell just to land a job? Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts Devin Siebold and James Yon kick off this episode with Devin's wild story of surviving a five-hour Metallica concert that nearly took him out. From there, things only get crazier as they dive into a shocking case of a teacher who absolutely lied through her teeth to get her job. Finally they're going to be sharing some of the most hilarious awards given to students. First, Devin shares the Metallica concert experience of a lifetime, complete with mosh pits, celebrity sightings, and most importantly, the brutal reminder that turning 40 comes with limits. All that being said, it was all worth it for a life changing experience that you absolutely can't miss. One teacher in Massachusetts has taken the phrase "fake it till you make it." to a whole new level. This teacher's lies included a fake PhD, fake Marine Corps background, and just about everything about her resume! Tune in to see exactly how her web of lies finally caught up with her. Finally a simple classroom prank was blown completely out of proportion. One teacher gave a 7th grader a "creative" reward, and let's just say the parents didn't find it as funny as the rest of the class thought it was. Tune in to find out just how bad this joke really was!
