Q: Dear Dr. Sadie: It's Friday, and I'm stuck at work.Where did I go wrong?
-Mario, Leblanc Canada
A: Mario, You didn't go wrong. You should be working! You should work saturdays too, and half of Sunday. That's the only way to ensure you will be properly miserable and angry, which is the natural state of all human beings. Please write me back Sunday from work so that I know you are doing your job.

Astute Career Counseling
Q: Dear Dr. Sadie - I was very sorry to learn of Mort's passing, but am delighted to see you getting on with your life (even if you are a comic strip character).
Should I pursue a career in geriatric nursing with a specialty in speech pathology (the latter in order to assist victims of stroke in communication)? Please advise.....
-Tracy
A: Tracy, rarely do I deign to give anyone actual advice, as all of you cretins are beneath me and my wise counsel. But in this case, I thank you for your comment on Mort's passing and I will take your heartfet question steriously. I strongly advise you to pursue a career in baseball. the best job in the world is playing 3rd base for the New York Yankees. If you get that job, I would appreciate if you would introduce me to Derek Jeter, the hunky shortstop. If you insist on pursuing that other job -- the one for old people -- then try to visit the pharmacy ad get me some Icy Hot rubbing creme which I can put in Rudy's shorts. Hope this helps wth your difficult decision.

Torn in half at work
Q: Dear Sadie,
I have been working at the same job now for over 10 years. It seems to have peaked about 3 years ago. I dont see a future but I would miss the people very much, What should I do? I want to have a stable but rewarding future but can not see myself working with any group of people that are as good a team as this one. Please help.
-Edwin
A: Edwin, this is a difficult question. On the one hand, I don't really care if your future is stable or rewarding. And on the other hand, I'm not interesting in whether you work with a good team. So, like you, I'm torn. Good luck!
