One more person you hafta add to #4, the cafeteria manager. If you show him/her a little love, he/she will lend out ladles, let you fill up your chest with ice or freeze things in the walk-in freezer, and slip you an extra cookie.

What's good for the first-year teacher is good for the fifth-year teacher, too! All well said (though you might want to reread #6). #5 is still a struggle for me five years on, but I'm getting better at it (perhaps because I'm becoming the "old school" now). And I think I'll start practicing your desk-idea. I've got two desks and a computer table that I struggle to keep clean constantly. I'm almost there, though, having the surface of each clean. Now it's a matter of getting the drawers straightened out. Anyway, good advice, man! Hey! What’s good for the first-year teacher is good for the fifth-year teacher, too!
