Lunch on Me

Wilma Playford, a first grade teacher at Willis Valley School in Fort Payne, Alabama

Whenever I need a substitute, I try to remember to leave $2.00 for him/her to have lunch on me. Substitutes usually don't get paid a lot and this not only helps them out, but I find they are more willing to come at the drop of a hat when needed. I remember that when I was substituting there were many times I didn't have any left over money for a lunch since we were paid once a month.
