Who's That At The Door?

I'm at my computer working on an agenda for our upcoming staff development and I hear a noise at my door. I turn around and a student is coming through my door visibly upset. The student sits in one of my chairs and refuses to respond when I ask why she's in my office. I inform the student that I'm going to continue to work and when she's ready to talk I will be ready to listen. She then crawls under my desk and sits there for a few minutes. As I work at my computer she stands up and tells me she's ready to talk. I soon discover that she the reason she was upset is because she wasn't able to pass out folders in the classroom. Wow! If I got this upset every time I didn't get to do what I wanted I'd be in big trouble.
