PA?

Today I found out through my expert fb stalking that a certain individual from our past, whose mental capacity and wisdom left much to be desired (at the time..maybe not anymore?) is in school to be a physician's assistant. I don't mean to be a jerk or anything but I am very curious to know... what exactly does a PA do?

so you say boys are stupid

it's because you're beautiful

Boardroom Animals

After having done a workshop with the client this week, I realized just how much I hate the metaphors consultants like to constantly stick in unnecessarily. Like, they'll explain they need to break down a big problem into several smaller parts...just like that, in a literal way. And then they follow it up with a metaphor like..."Like cutting the elephant into ten pieces." First of all, this is totally unnecessary, and I, being slightly slow, take longer to visualize this image and apply it to what was already literally explained. Second, I do not need the image of an animal chopped up. And I noticed that a lot of the metaphors consultants use relate to animals. Don't know why...and don't know why we feel the need to use them.

Some examples:
- the elephant one
- the 800 pound gorilla in the room (common one)
- we need to skin the cat (common one)
- it's like the tail wagging the dog (creative and weird visual)

I just really hate consultant-speak.

responsibility

do you guys ever get shocked when people take you seriously? like about serious business. like when you're dealing with huge amounts of money. or when you're talking about 'important' ideas.

half the time i'm thinking. dude don't listen to me. i play videogames in my free time.

8 So-Called “Chivalrous” Moves That Creep Us Out

Do you agree these things are awkward? Any strange chivalrous things that confuse you?

1. Ordering my meal for me. This has always struck me as bizarro, because chances are you don’t know what I want. The only time this is cool is if I have no idea how to pronounce something and you do.
2. Letting me win at a game of Scrabble/pool/bowling when you are clearly better. No fun! Please give it your best shot. I want the satisfaction of really beating you.
3. Using a code term for going to the bathroom. Especially retro words like “tinkle.” You can just say, “I’ll be back in a minute.” I’ll get it.
4. Pulling out my chair. Someone told me this tradition started when women wore loads of crinolines and, thus, scooting in your chair was difficult. That’s no longer the case. It just makes me nervous that you won’t push it in at the right moment and I’ll land on the ground with a thud.
5. Carrying my purse. Yeah, it’s heavy, but I’m pretty used to it at this point. You carrying it just looks funny. I have enough of a hard time with murses.
6. Asking my dad for my hand in marriage. So outdated. Pops just shouldn’t be involved in our relationship. No one should know you want to marry them before they do.
7. If you’re paying for dinner, not letting me put in for tip. Or get a round of drinks after. If I offer, it’s because I want to. I swear.
8. Helping me put me coat on. This is sweet, but it’s always awkward because my hand misses the sleeve or gets stuck somewhere in there. It’s easier to just do it on my own.
