What if accounting is my destiny? What if I am destined to cure cancer and end world hunger with my mesmeric accounting skills and I can't seem to get past the fact the that sometimes a debit is actually an increase in some places and a decrease in others even though I understand a little why and know that the actual rationalization behind it is not essential to getting through this class.
Also, I again wanted to kick Olan (who I usually call Count Olaf IV because on the first day of class he made a whole speech about his name being Glen Olan Meadows the Fourth but that he goes by Olan) because he was holding up a sign on his notebook to someone across the room that said "Dan Stinks". And even though Dan couldn't see the sign, and I admit did have a slight BO problem today, I still considered this incredibly disrespectful and intolerant. This is not the first of Count Olaf IV's transgressions, the first day of class he declared during break that he is against gay marriage becuase, with abstinance only education in schools, allowing the sanctaty of marriage to be tarnished would take away their reason for abstinance and cause all heterosexual teens to instantly become promiscuous. Well, he didn't say it in exactly those words, but that really is the gist of what he said. He is such a hypocrite though. He claims to have a female fiance and spent a year in drag and nearly went through with a sex change operation. He of all people should understand that "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" should apply equaly. Yesterday he caused a girl in our class to quit because he couldn't stop being a drama queen. We we all role-playing calls and he was playing the customer, but even when she put him on hold to ask our trainer questions, he just turned around and started performing for the class. So she couldn't get her questions answered, felt overwhelmed, and walked out. And just to ice the cake, in the breakroom later he was bragging about being the one to "break" her. I HATE this guy! I really want to kick him. It makes me mad that I feel guilty for making judgements about him and even having to bring up his lifestyle choices, but I can't find any other way to explain what makes him such a hypocrite. I'm normally very tolerant and I just can't seem to get over how inhuman he is, how judgemental, gossipy, backstabbing, intolerant, etc. he is.
Anyway, I really need to go to bed now so that I can be ready for another rivetting day of training tommorrow.
