Priest Retirement Dinner


A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 35 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and to give a little speech at the dinner.


However, he was delayed, so the Priest decided to say his own few words while they waited:
“I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie his way out of it. He had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his boss’s wife, taken illegal drugs, and gave VD to his sister. I was appalled. But as the days went on I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people.”…


Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately began to make the presentation and gave his talk:


“I’ll never forget the first day our Parish Priest arrived,” said the politician. “In fact, I had the honor of being the first person to go to him for confession.”

Teacher Retirement Jokes


Most people dread the thought of retiring. There are some people who seemingly cannot wait to retire and then sit and do nothing, but they are definitely in the minority. Of all the people who hate retiring, teachers seem to hate it the most. They are so used to the hustle and bustle, and so used to being around their students all the time that they hate retiring! As soon as one teacher's day to retire comes close, you can hear plenty of teacher retirement jokes coming from the staff rooms, though.

Now, teacher retirement jokes are plenty. They are even funnier when teachers themselves crack those teacher retirement jokes. Have you ever wondered why they make all those teacher retirement jokes? Well, one thing teachers learn after a few months of teaching is that there are some things you cannot change. They have to be faced. So the best thing to do is to laugh about them!

If you have ever attended a retirement dinner for a beloved and trusted teacher, you will see that. There will be a speech from the teacher, of course - and the speech is bound to be full of anecdotes, jokes, teacher jokes, and, especially, teacher retirement jokes. The best part is that they know where these jokes stem from, because they have all seen it happen - they are not just downloaded from somewhere on the net, which is only apt, considering that teachers spearhead the movement against plagiarism of homework!

All those jokes do not mean that these teachers are not sad about leaving. Teaching is one of the hardest, most difficult jobs in the world. It is also one of the most underpaid jobs in the world. This means that when a person decides to be a teacher, they do it because they truly want to, because they sincerely want to teach. Such people also never stop learning - which is why they know that they must always look forward, just like they always tell their students.

No matter how much teachers may try to convince themselves that they are getting a well-earned break, that they are glad to be free of the stress and the worry, they are the ones who will find it the hardest to let go of their professions, because it is more than just a profession to them. This is as it should be - teaching should be more than just a career.
