Stupid people???


lol... We have all those people we encounter from time to time.

ie:

I was re-entering an online college to pursue my Bachelors Degree in CJ (after already receiving the Associates in CJ from the same University). The "academic advisor" had the nerve to ask me:

1. So have you met all the requirements to take these courses? (duh, I wouldn't be here if I haven't!)

2. So have you taken Intro to CJ yet? (duh, that is one of the first courses you take in the Associate's program!!)

and,

an array of other dumb questions. I was looking at my phone and made sure that I was talking to a person (and it wasn't a figment of my imagination) -- yep, the phone was in "connected" status, albeit I wasn't sure "connected" to what!!! lol...

I don't ever loose my patience, but I certainly did and asked to be immediately transfered to my re-entry admissions advisor. Auggggghhhghghghghghghghhhhh....

He said she was new. (duh!! lol)
He said I should give her a chance. (yeah, I will)
He said to be careful to not address the email to her as "Dear Stupid!" (lol... awww come on!!).....

Hope your days go smoothly. I know that there truly is intelligent life out there somewhere - just finding lately some pockets of folks that are in La La Land.

Have a great weekend and an even better week ahead!!!
