More Fun with Drunken Monkeys

The phone call of the day...

Advisor: I have a student that wants to add one of your courses. Where should I tell him/her to go?

I give her our street address, landmarks, and a description of the house.

Advisor: But you're WU. Where is that?

Again, I say where we're located and explain that WU is our code on the campus map. Like GY is geology and EP is journalism.

Advisor: But where do I tell the student to go?

I hope she could tell that I had lost my patience. I again, tell where we are and that WU is just a code.

This has been the 6th call this week from an advisor from that particular department. Its good to see that the university has no qualms about hiring monkeys.
