I'm guessing he wasn't included in last week's unemployment numbers, either.

Oh my!

I wonder if he’ll be able to convey what it is like to be expected to actually produce results?

I would suggest that Coach Robinson move to DC and
apply for a coaching gig in the Mom Pants League . He
might even be eligible for a secret presidential appointment.

I assume he’ll now be hired as a “consultant” to assist with the Clippers anti-racism campaign?

Dr Ray Stantz: Personally, I liked the university. They gave us money and facilities, we didn't have to produce anything! You've never been out of college! You don't know what it's like out there! I've *worked* in the private sector. They expect *results*.
