The walls of the infirmary were lined with retching students and the National Guard had to be called in to help with the situation. . In the aftermath, a weird sort of competitiveness set in among those who had been unfortunate enough to contract the disease.

Give them a task, and they will be able to apply their technical skills (read ‘know-how’) to accomplish it.

I realized that for a variety of reasons, the position was no longer working for me and I wanted to move into something else. With two kids heading into summer daycare that would eat up a good portion of my check, it seemed like quitting to work full-time on new opportunities for myself was the best option.
