-Day of Introductions-

Friday was a great day for introductions at the college.
New guy like me could press flesh all day and never reach every last janitor, guard, word processor, accountant, professor, coach, vice president for student affairs, and systems administrator, but still I tried, and consequently remembered almost none of their names, wondering all the while which one would become my closest ally and which one, my deadliest enemy.

The guy who fusses over change in the bookstore would do a great job in either role, I think.
