So... I need a clever new name... and I got only mildly humorous ideas....
Please help....

2 Weeks Notice
Well it's almost August... that means it's time to quit whatever BS job I've managed to land to actually pay the bills and head back to another semester.
This year is very exciting as I head east. Particularly since I have landed a pretty sweet TAship... I get to be the only instructor, but don't have the onus of creating daily lesson plans, much less a syllabus.
So today I turned in my two weeks notice. Nearly over are the days of chatting up older gentlemen about their prostates and entering data about their desire to not be incontinent.

Listen Up
Hey middle-aged men....
I know that it is going to be hot outside today and I know that we live in one of the lamer "cities" in CA, but come on. There is NO reason for all of you to wear Hawaiian shirts to work today.*
1. They are not any of the following... attractive, cool, fun, appropriate for a workplace.
2. There is air conditioning in the offices you work in.
*Nearly every car I passed on the way to work had a guy with one on.
