Pet Peeve of the Day

Tell me the same story you told me a year ago, and then again six months ago, about how a doctor refused to learn the computer system and how you saw it as a challenge. Then tell me how you were successful in teaching him to love it. Or how he said “You should be a refrigerator salesman. I would have bought four!”

And be sure to use this as the example every time someone brings up what we do for a living or when I’m trying to describe my frustration with certain “positions” spitting new information at doctors when they don’t know how to teach.

You see, the reason you don’t hear the rest of us telling stories like yours is because we do that every fucking day. That’s our job. You are not uniquely talented.

And quite frankly, “you-who-poses-as-a-teacher”, you suck shit at teaching.

    I am glad that I haven’t heard this story. If I do hear the story, I will not be able to control a smirk or laugh.

    I was nice and took some stack 8 people to a basketball game hahaha Must have been some of those non-sports loving people on the front side of the building.

    Wow.. I totally remember us watching the ’95 Finals (Rockets/Magic) and getting screamed at for being too loud. My sophomore year in stack 8 was pretty awesome; that’s when I met peeps like KB and Tofty and my dorm room was packed with folks playing NBA Jam, watching my Simpsons tapes and just generally lollygagging…

    To paraphrase Jeremy Piven in Gross Pointe Blank:

    “Ten.. Years!!!!”

    It’s amazing that it’s been that long.
