I am now imagining this exchange in a future...
Abed: Oh, everyone needs to be extra careful this week.
Jeff: Why's that?
Abed: It's Sweeps Week. High-rating shows always have some big mind-blowing event in Sweeps Week to get ratings. Someone dies, or there's a natural disaster.
Jeff: Abed, for the last time, this is not one of those shows!
Abed: No, you're probably right. Some shows just have some big Oscar-winning actor make an appearance.
Jeff: This is Greendale. I doubt there's an Oscar-winning actor in the entire state, let alone one about to walk through the study room door.
Dean Pelton: *walks through the study room door* Hel-looooooo!

First day back at work since
before Christmas and it feels really weird. Not only (mostly) because right before the holidays we moved into a new office space and it’s strange leaving work one day like it’s any other day and then coming back almost two weeks later to a whole new space that you’ve never been before and trying to act like everything’s cool, everything’s the same but also because...

Fake It 'Til You Make It.
This is what friends, co-workers and family have been saying to me the past few months whenever I voice distress or frustration with my current work situation. And as much as I wish I could just suck it up, slap on a smile and “grin and bear it,” a part of me doesn’t want to settle. Because that’s what it feels like, settling. I know that I’m young and I have plenty...
