Monday, May 18, 2009

School / Work

Reading out Loud = Conference Call
Giving Book Report or Speech = Presentation / Big Meeting
Solving Blackboard Problem = Explaining Excel formulas at a meeting
Pop Quiz = Paperwork
Teacher Conference = Evaluation
Homework = Take Shit Home, Working Late
Paper Writing = The carefully crafted email and marketing material
Xtra Credit = Volunteering to do hard stuff
Film Strip = Webinar
Recess = Work Happy Hour
Field Trip = Out of town meeting/conference where you don't present
Show and Tell = Your clever desk toys and twitter account
Extracirriculars = Organizing your overscheduled day
Study Hall = Friday, Late Afternoon
