Mysterious Barricades

This is just some top notch trolling on the part of the Terry College of Business.

I’m such an Org Theory nerd I contemplated this WAY longer than was appropriate.

Finishing grad school was like* breaking up with an abusive boyfriend. Sometimes, another degree sounds like a brilliant idea and I think I should go back. It wasn’t thaaaaaaaaaaat bad… I mean, my job would pay for it… And I’m so good at school… And being Dr. Halley would be pretty sweet…

Then I slowly start to remember the long nights in the library, the red bull, the literally thousands of papers I wrote that no one else in the world could possibly care about (and the associated tumblr posts… aren’t y’all glad i graduated?), the pitiful amount of money in my bank account and realize that I’m probably still suffering from academic Stockholm Syndrome. 

*Except not at all, because that’s terrible.

The only real reason I would get my DMA is to be called Dr. Shivers, and so my fate as a comic book villain would be sealed.
