It's not every day that you find a job that allows you to be a kid again, but for those of us who are lucky enough to be camp counselors know that being a kid never really has to stop. I love this job despite all of the chaos and madness. For those of you who are currently, or have been camp counselors...here are 19 "camp counselor problems" that I guarantee you will understand!

1. Games on games on games...

Kickball, Wiffle Ball, Four Square, Monopoly, Connect Four, etc. You name it we play it.

2. Lame jokes are all we know

"What time is it?"

"TIME TO GET A WATCH!!!!"

3. Dirt

Suddenly the idea of being covered in dirt all day long isn't that bad, because it is frankly all too normal. (Not to mention the timeless mixture of dirt, sweat, and sunscreen...yum!)

4. Tie dye

It's all fun and games until you are covered in dye and have fifty kids shouting colors at you.

5. Staff shirts for days

Thank God I like the color blue...

6. Cards

You will never find a better confidence booster than playing card games with the campers...Guaranteed W.

7. Clingy campers

Why do you feel the need to hold my hand, hang on my arm, or jump on my back in 95 degree weather?!?!

8. Being just as competitive as your campers (if not more)

Always pretty sad when you find yourself yelling at a nine year old for cheating in a game.

9. Water fights

It is not even worth announcing that you are not participating in the water fight...These children have no mercy.

10. Summer music hits

You'd be surprised by how many songs can be ruined in just two months.

11. Camper quotes

Kids say the dardest things am I right?

12. Tan lines

*Moment of silence for our horrid tan lines*

13. Camp relationships

Be careful not to spend more than five minutes talking to a coworker or the newest counselor relationship gossip will be spreading like wildfire.

14. Late pickup

*4:01PM* "I LITERALLY HATE YOUR PARENTS"

15. Choosing favorites

It's so wrong, but we all do it.

16. The friendship bracelet obsession

"Pick your colors"

17. Bribery

It works.

18. Coworker bond

The camp counselor bond is so real...Too real.

19. Living 10 months for these 2

As much as we all complain, being a camp counselor is hands down the best job on earth.

No matter what, there is no better summer job out there that is better than this one. So here is to all of the counselors who feel my pain, but at the end of the day love this job to death.
