“Are you one of the millions with recurring dreams of taking college exams? I remain haunted by two, both which happen to be rebroadcasts of real events.

I used the term auditing to mean I didn’t have to attend the class or do the home work. From the school’s perspective, it did mean I had to take the final. As I learned sitting at my desk, wishing I could think of any excuse to move my pencil across the pristine pages of the blue book, apparently there is a difference between operations research and operations management. Whatever the difference was, it accounted for the blank pages staring up at me.”
