I'll Take Things I Don't Want To Hear on a Tuesday Morning for $2000, Alex

1. "Sorry, we've only brewed decaf coffee so far."*
2. "No, ma'am, we've discontinued that Aveda product you've been using so blissfully for the last three years."
3. "I know you're in the middle of a class, but just off the top of your head, could you put together a comprehensive list of books for me on the topic of history in the Middle East that includes both a recent chronological layout and primary source documents? No? Well could you do it for me by third period?"
4. "I know we told you that you'd be eligible to receive Professional Development Points for that conference last month. We were wrong."
5. "As you can see, tomorrow's agenda includes a three hour seminar on Sexual Harrassment. We will be looking for volunteers to role play."

Sigh. This is going to be a rough week.

*Who the eff brews decaf first? Like anyone's going to rush in, already late for work, just so they can get their decaf fix?
