Italians do it better (the MBA)

Saturday, January 28, 2006

Here is a picture of Milan today. I love the white landscape in which everything becomes so smooth!! Did I told you that this term I'm sitting on the back of the class, in the last row. Beside me there is a girl that here, for privacy reasons, we will call Melanie. Melanie spends 80% of the time (with a compound growth of 5%) on her laptop doing anything except paying attention to the class: email, powerpoint, random surf over internet, picture editing and red-eye effect removing, messenger.. and so on. The only class she pays attention to is Managerial Accounting. Why? Because the professor, in a shared opinion among girls, is HOT. Dylan says that from the second row you can smell a bad breath but the way he gives numbers is quite irresistible. He is the guy of "cash is king". Melanie was always late last term but the fact that our Operational Finance professor has introduced the rule that whoever is late has to sing in front of the class makes her extremely on time. Today she was there but i cannot hear her tumbs on the keybord and quickly came the explanation. "George..".. "yes Melanie".. "I'm drunk". She also explained me that is good dutch tradition that when your parents come to visit, you go with them to Bar of The Week. They went home at 4 in the morning totally drunk (totally means everybody, mother, father, not already legal sister, and Melanie.. at full capacity) singing each of them a different song along the streets of Barcelona. Then she went out because she could't sustain an our of operational finance. She came back for the second class: Human Resource Management. Since she was not present during the first class she spent several minutes to manage the backlog of emails she hasn't replyed yet. In the meantime the professor has written down some charts and trendlines for "ENVIRONMENT, STRATEGY and HR-APPROACH". After 10 minutes Melanie wispers in my ear "George".. "Yes Melanie".. "What's the first word? ENTERTAINMENT?".
