Hee. Woman's studies major. Talk about worthless, tasteless degrees. Just what kind of a job is a person who's majored in woman's studies quailifed to do? Could you imagine being an employeer and getting one of their resumes? What a riot! I know I'd interview the person. I have a mental picture of the interview... Me: Good morning Mizz X, may I get you a cup of coffee? X: No thank you, I don't drink, or make coffee. Me: You do understand that you've applied for a job as a waitress, don't you? Making coffee IS part of the job description. X: Making coffee has been considered women's work for to long, therefore, I will not make it. Me: Hmmm, I see. From your job application that you've just graduated from the University of Maryland. What is your degree in? X: Women's studies. Me: I see. What was your biggest accomplishment at school? X: I organized a group of women and we got a list of about 100 men, made a poster titled 'Potential Rapists,' and posted it all around campus. I'm very proud of that. By the way, have you noiticed that there are an awful lot of potential rapists at this restaurant right now? Me: Errr, no, I didn't notice. How can you tell them from the other patrons? X: They're the ones that make the waitress serve them. Me: Uh, that IS what a waitress is hired to do. X: Not any more. Me: I see. Mizz X, just how did you come up with your list of potential rapists? X: Oh, we just picked random names of men at the university. Me: Hmmm, I see. Have you got any questions for me? X: Yes, just how much does this job pay? Me: $6.50 an hours, plus any tips. X: $6.50?! Excuse me! My calculations place this job's comparetive worth at $16.50 an hour. Me: I see. X: When do I start? I got a lot of things around here I going to change. I'm going to start with.... Me: Next!
