Community Service

[Zim]

I'm torn, on the one hand I'm not sure they should be forcing people to do community service (kind of takes the point out of volunteering) and on the other I can't see how it would hurt anyone to have to...

I guess when I start to sympathize in the slightest with making kids do things they don't want to it's a sign of my impending old age (a decrepit 25 right now ).

Me: High School Sucks, I'm just going to perma-ditch.
Dad: Get Your GED or I'll make you suffer a kind of hell that you can't possibly Imagine.
Me: *Runs to get GED*

4 Years Later

Dad: Why haven't you gotten yourself a decent job yet?
Me: Job Market Sucks.
Dad: Do something about it. You're off my payroll
Me: *curses silently and goes to College.*

4 Years Later

Wife: Why are you still going to College?
Me: Having a Masters is a Good Idea.
Wife: Do you have plans on ever doing anything with your degree?
Me: Just tying off loose-ends.
Wife: Wouldn't it have made sense to just get a Bachelors in Business?
Me: Maybe. I can always go back later if I feel the need to get a degree in Business.
Wife: I'd like you to be at the house more often.
Me: I'm at the house everyday, I have to have some excuse to leave!
Wife:

If it helps you can tell her my father has a Master's in Business Administration and it hasn't done him much good lately.

As was so nicely pointed out earlier, there is no escaping it, the nagging will follow you forever............
