Weeding Out The Tour Guides From The RAs

Mom: “You know, your cousin has a friend whose son wants to go to your college. Do you think you can talk to them?”

Me: “Okay, sure. Give them my contact information.”

Mom: “Great! I told them you’d talk so much they wouldn’t need to ask questions.”

Dad: “Yeah, you’re better than a tour guide really.”

Me: “You know, I still can’t believe they never hired me. Neither could my friends who were tour guides. Actually, I still find it funny that the tour guides I knew flat out told me that tour guiding is where their weed money came from.”

Dad: “Really?”

Me: “Yeah. Well, except for the ones that were resident assistants. What does it say when all of our tour guides are either stoners or RAs?”

Mom: “Excuse me, but the last time I checked marijuana was illegal in New York State.”

Me: “Um… yes. The irony was kind of the point of the story.”
