I couldn't do that. I'm 30 now, and even now if I see someone who was a former teacher or talk about that person, it's always Mr. or Mrs. Whoever. It would be too weird to call them by their first names!
I don't know how people who teach in the district where they went to school do it. It would be odd to have to relate to former teachers as coworkers.
