I just started working at a high school and in the first week had the following experiences:
- Some third years tried to hassle me for money
- I have co-workers ask me why I�m eating in the teacher�s cafeteria
- Security guards are stopping me at the gate because I�m not �properly dressed.�
- Students attempted to block me from my office because they were using the adjoining room to prep for a show



What is up with my school, you ask?



They all think I�m a student.


Now I have students running after me apologizing and pleading with me to keep quiet. Co-teachers are trying to set me up with daughters and nieces. And the security guards? Well, they are still asking me why I�m not in uniform.

What should I do with my remaining anonymity? I would say 90% of the school still has no idea who I am.

I dress like most of the male teachers at my school. I could use a haircut, though. Have quite the mane growing out.
