Run Cow, Run!

In case of fire, what do you do? 1) Moo slowly to the next patch of greener grass; 2) Stampede your way around the field (flatten the grass, so no grass to burn, therefore impede movement of fire, therefore save the cow day); 3) wait for the fire to approach unsuspecting cows thus turning them into smoked BBQ steaks. Me, I'll probably grab all cow-ly Tod's possessions, err, and run for my life. Not forgetting Slick of course, lest he turns into some popcorn concoction of an unimaginable sort (he is a BEANIE after all).

So I've been made secondary fire warden of my dept. Whatever that means, but aiyah, when alarm goes off, I'll just shout to everyone, "EVERYMAN FOR HIMSELF!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!". Where got time to gather everyone, count heads, and make sure they file downstairs in orderly fashion? Hmm, should I ask them to partner up and hold hands with each other, and arrange them from shortest to tallest, just like in primary school days?

Anyway.....

Group presentation coming up in a few days for school. Everyone got adrenaline rush, staying up late and sneaking additional effort during office hours to do research. Wah I don't remember working so hard in a long time, but one thing can say, working with a bunch of engineers or tech guys has its merits - these fellas love to do research like crazy and they conceptualize and logic think very well. I got one china guy in my group and he literally can write the whole case and presentation by himself as he's done all the homework pat. I just trail in the dust at my cow pace. But much better than working in a group of all women because we tend to meander around in circles and get no where. What's a cow do with an MBA anyway? Can we eat it? Moo.

Sigh!... the best hing for a cow to do when the field catches fire is to EAT the grass lah!!!..then no grass to burn!!.. anyway... cow's shouldn't smoke.. then there will not be a fire... smoking not good for cows... especially in a BBQ..

Do you know why they made you SECONDARY fire marshall?.. cuz the main guy will just tell you to scream fire!.... and you use your shrill girlie banshee like voice to scram the house down!!...alamak! better than smoke alarm!!.. then when you go off running in panic, guy in charge just says."right.. follow the screams'...!..you not very zen in panic situatiions...

oohh.. i LOVE engineers... they DO all research, compile TONNES of notes and spit out pure LOGIC.. but it makes for a terribly boring presentation, with no spice but covers ALL the bases!.. try to infuse examples from current affairs!... to spice things up!.. when all else fails.. have nicely coloured SLIDES!!!

oh.. and why do coes go for MBA?...
it stands for Mad Bovine Achievement!...

as in by the time you get the MBA, you be mad already!!...
