Yesterday, I was chatting with their instructor while they were unpacking materials for their senior seminar course. Of course, there was bubble wrap in the packaging—and naturally, they started popping it. I asked them (nicely!) to stop popping the bubbles.
I left the room *fully expecting* they’d try something. When I got back to my office, I thoroughly checked the room for their senior prank. Nothing. All clear.
…Until I sat down and rolled toward my desk.
They had wrapped the **wheels of my chair** in bubble wrap. 🤦♂️💥
Well played. They got me. 😄
