TOP 10 REASONS TO WORK FOR THE STATE: (According to Angela)

This is the email she had sent to Freddie and I today at work, sad thing is, she's SOO right. I however, added my comments in bold:

10. You get to have really professional sounding titles that mean...absolutely nothing (CTR? what the heck?) HEY we had to work for that title. We studied and trained for months, traveled for lectures, and had to take a stupid test. AND pay yearly out of our own pockets to keep it. Go figure?

9. You can go for coffee breaks, bathroom breaks, stairwell walks, and lunch breaks with your fellow cube members. Yeah...you're right.

8. You get to put rear view mirrors on your computer monitors. How else are you supposed to know when a supervisor is walking into your cube, or walking by, or checking to see if you're writing ANOTHER email???? DUHH!!!!

7. People like marge, tulip, and old spice ACTUALLY DO EXIST! So does G-dubs, C-dawg, P-Diddy, Gorilla, P-Star, Chicken Leg, and Tripod.

6. You are surrounded by every possible type of restaurant you could ever crave all within walking distance. You ain't kiddin! How bad is it gonna suck when we move to Menands?

5. APPLE FRIDAYS YAY APPLE FRIDAYS!! The farmer's market vendors are out now. OMG FREDDIE WE CAN GET APPLES TOMORROW!!!

4. busboy, dd boy, and MANY other potentials. Ummm....I'm always by the side of a 6'2'' (or is it 6''2'??) man....trust me, there IS no potentials.

3. Opportunities for becoming an aspiring model (don't worry - you guys will get your chance)
Angela, I'm not ready to talk about this yet. I thought FOR SURE we had that modeling gig for the NYS DOH photo shoot.

2. Unlimited email, unrequired work. Pretty much?

and the NUMBER ONE REASON TO WORK FOR THE STATE:

1. unlimited amounts of sick days/late dates/dr. appointments/missed bus excuses!
You left out personal and vacation time too deary.

There you have it my friends.
