Today, I started my first teaching job ever. As I was teaching, another teacher interrupted my class about 5 times because she thought it was her class. Not only did she ruin my confidence, her behavior caused my students to laugh at me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the first day of school, I threw up on my teacher in the middle of class. FML
Today, I was teaching when I saw a student leave her chair and brazenly head for the door. I clapped her on the shoulder and said, "Going somewhere, miss?" She vomited all over my pants. FML
Today, I gathered the courage to participate in a class discussion. My professor laughed at me. FML
Today, I went to my first class of the year. The first thing the teacher said was, "I hate this f*cking school." FML
Today, during one of my first days as a teacher, a student stole my phone. FML
Today, I started at a new school. It's a pretty great school, but there's only one problem: Everybody thinks I'm a teacher. I'm only a freshman. FML
Today, I was sitting in class when I overheard a group talking about how much they don't like me. When they saw me there, they burst out laughing. FML
Today, I was tutoring. When my kids were finally working on their own, I stood in my classroom’s doorway to talk to my boss sitting outside about upcoming work. Suddenly, one of my students sitting directly behind me let out the loudest fart ever. I think my boss heard and thought it was me. FML
Today, my teacher yelled at me for using my phone in class. I apologized out loud, knowing that it would help me get off easier. She was yelling at somebody else. FML
Today, I was teaching and a boy sitting in front kept laughing and smiling, even after I asked him to cut it out. I got so annoyed that I jokingly said I'd knock his teeth out, and asked him to leave the class. The kid went to the principal and told him I intended to hurt him. I'm a college professor. FML

No need to worry, just make sure the next day you show you are in control so the students don't take you as a light weight.

Do you share a room or something? How does a teacher confuse someone else's class for her own?

Once or twice is ok, but five times? Someone needs to get their classroom and role straightened out...

How did she think it was her class 5 times? Does she have some sort of memory loss?

How to exert power 101 > Bake cookies > Bring to class > Sit down at desk with an apple (for aesthetics) > Eat them all whilst staring into each individual child's soul in complete silence > When finished all cookies proclaim "This is my swamp" > Get back to teaching pretending nothing ever happened

No, children are particularly evil. They haven't learned how to be ashamed or polite yet.

That's what I wanna know! I know that sometimes, when teachers are new, some schools have another, more experienced teacher help the new one out, but the way OP's if this is the case then wtf's wrong with the other one!?

Assert your authority early. That's my best advice.

Regain that confidence! Remember the mistake was theirs not yours.
