Promotion

As many of you might know, last Friday I had my first game for Men's Ice Hockey here at Ohio State and what I do is the game coordinator. Pre-game I write up all the PA's, get promotions set, and any other general things that have to get done before the game. During the game I am in charge of playing the music during stoppage, coordinating the matrix and video boards, coordinating the band to play, and coordinating my interns (or slaves as I call them) during the game. So there is alot I am doing during the game. The picture in last blog is me in action, as my sister said I look like a young Bob Costa, I do not know if that is a joke about my height or just because I am that good looking. Either way my first game went off without a hitch, we lost 5-1 but I like to think we won on the marketing side 4-3. Well I must have done a great job because today when I came into the office I got a book from the CCHA (our hockey conference) that is basically an information guide about all the schools in the conference, so I went to Ohio State section and look 3/4 down...

I am titled as Marketing Director. I have been promoted. As I showed all my coworkers and my boss my new title and then fired all of them with my new title. They all had the same response to me..."Pat your a dork." A dork who is Marketing Director, so if anyone has a problem with my new position and leadership style (Stalin-esqe) you're fired!! (TM) (Just had to pay Donald Trump $200 for using his trade mark, catch phrase, but it was worth I make the Director bucks now)
