Ask Homer

I was utterly spoiled over the past holidays. I got almost everything I wanted and then some, including a brand spankin' new Palm Pilot/MP3 player that my wonderful boyfriend got me. While I won't go into how great my Palm is, cuz that would be showing off, I will say that I have been a complete nerd about it. I have been downloading a whole bunch of games and programs to go on it, including a little gem called Ask Homer. Basically, you click on Homer and he gives you some priceless words of wisdom ripped strait from your favorite episodes of the Simpsons.

The following really summed up how I've feeling about work:

"No, no, no, Lisa. If adults don't like their jobs, they don't go on strike. They just go in every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American Way."

The sad thing is, I'm so good at my job that even when I do it half-assed it still turns out great. Attendance is up for games, I organized a very succesfull breakfast ceremony and Sports Services has never looked better in the eyes of the administration. Add to that the fact that I got a glowing mid-term evaluation and the Rector (oh, pardon me, it's President now) spoke highly of me at a meeting with my superiors and things are going pretty well.

Now just think of how well things would be going if I used my whole ass (re: We Won't Pay! We Won't Pay!).

And that, dear alumni and students of this venerable establishment, explains alot as to why you might have had administrative problems while you were here.
