Saved by the bell. My boss asked me today if I planned on taking any Public Health courses next fall. In my head I said, "Hell no, I'm not putting myself through that again." Out loud, and in order to give the impression that I'm taking tangible steps to procuring some kind of future for myself, I replied, "I haven't checked the schedule yet. It depends on the courses offered and what professors are teaching them."
Never BS with your boss. No good can come from it.
At this point my boss whipped out a schedule of classes that she printed from the internet – complete with highlighted courses that she was planning on taking. She suggested that I take one of those classes so we could help each other out.
Can you imagine being study buddies with your boss? It’s not too difficult to fake competency in the work place - tasks are so mundane and there’s always a multitude of people to blame things on. But a classroom setting? I don’t know a Chi-square from an ANOVA and there goes any chance for that annual pay increase.
Now the real test of whether any intelligence remains in this gray matter of mine – how do I get out of this?
help.
