Today, I started my new job as a teacher. Worried about how I looked, I asked a coworker if I looked okay. She said, "You look fine. Just like a normal high school kid." I spent the next half hour convincing her that I was not a student, but a teacher. FML

I'm a teacher, 25, and look about seventeen. It sucks. I sympathize.

Could be worse, people think my 14 year old sister is older than me. Oh and i cant seem to get a good job because i look like middle schooler.

Depends how old you are. A lot of people, I've noticed, have started mentioning their ages on their resume; if you find your age is often mistaken perhaps you should do the same. I also look younger than I am (I look maybe passable for 18, I'm 21) and I had no problems getting my last job (apart from the time it took to find it) after I started putting my age on my cover letter.

You look young, and you're pupils will like you better, why complain?

I also have the same problem, people mistake my younger brother for the older one and never take me seriously, but itll work out for the best when im 50. . .right?
