Would you want to be a college president?
« on: March 07, 2009, 06:34:19 PM »
Last week in a meeting with colleagues someone asked me if I saw a (college) presidency in my future.  I said "no" but what I was thinking was “hell no!”  I do not understand the appeal of that job.  Too much of your time is spent begging for money (fundraising) and no matter how much you manage to raise you never raise enough.  You are always having to say “no” to people and generating enemies along the way.  The job is nothing but a stress machine… no wonder there are always tons of presidential searches underway.  The typical President lasts only five years...

Hey guys....I wanted to grab your opinion on something very important.  I figured GB was the perfect place to get some reasonable, educated, advice!

Would any of you consider becoming president of GM?  One of my employees asked me "when I was going to become the CEO of a major cooperation" the other day in a meeting.  I'm thinking - "hell-no"!  Do you know the state of American car manufactures right now?  WHY IN THE FUCK would I want to head up a company like GENERAL MOTERS!?

Shit!  I have to fly.....Donald Trump just walked in for some financial advice....see ya!

Thanks for the offer.....HOWEVER, I'm looking at a high level position within the United States Government, currently.  A guy named Barack Obama (WHO THE FUCK IS THAT, I MEAN REALLY!?) gave me a call while I was flying my chopper to the gold plating factory to get my golf clubs dipped in gold and he asked me to take a high level position within his cabinet?  I don't think the money is right though.  I mean I need to make AT LEAST 5-60 million per year!  Do you think I should post about this issue on the main board?  I bet some of those guys have some great advice that they can give me. I might as well fix the fucking economy while I'm at it.  Sometimes I wonder why these IDIOTS can't fix the worlds biggest problem more easily.

Shit, gotta run, Warren Buffest just came in - He's asking me for more advice on his investments....idiot :)

Yes, freshmen only. After the first year they become fat, tatted up, blue haired feminazis.
