Here’s a job that I’m pretty sure I meet the requirements for:

Rent A White Guy

  1. I’m interested. I have the look, the suit, and the U.S economy has rendered me available for gigs.

    A few years ago I befriended a Chinese girl. She wanted to take me back to Beijing to manage the Starbucks she wanted to open (using her new MBA). The thing I offered that was most impressive in China, she assured me, was my skin color and height (I’m 6’2″). If I’d know this I’d never have taken any classes: all they really want is my body.

  2. I guess the hardest part would be keeping a straight face if the insanity of the situation ever hits you all at once.

  3. Maybe we both could get a job for about eight months.

  4. I’ve never seen you in a suit, Scott, But I know you would Die in a Tie !

  5. I’ve been in a suit & tie many times, though it’s been a while. Giving presentations to NASA, USAF, US Army, Lockheed, etc. folks, mostly when I worked at CSD. It’s an inefficient use of funds. Far less expensive clothes are far more utilitarian and comfortable, leading to more efficient and effective engineers. And if the USAF General’s attention is on whether or not your pants are pressed, rather than your explanation of, say, your new ICBM third stage motor ignition system, something has gone seriously wrong in the system somewhere.
