Hillel connects students during High Holidays

Gables campus hosts days of observance

BY DANIELLE MASHAL CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Yamim Noraim, the Days of Awe, has arrived for Jewish students on the University of Miami’s Coral Gables campus.

Many who are observing the High Holidays are coming together as a community and family at UM’s Hillel. The days of repentance began on Sept. 4 with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and ends at sundown Saturday with Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement and the holiest time of the year.

“This is a time about complete introspection and forces us to do an accounting of our souls and actions from the past year and make amends, repair relationships and enable ourselves to fulfill our true potential,” said Robyn Fisher, the assistant director at Hillel for the past eight years.

Hillel has not only become a home to her, but to many Jewish students who find it a place of comfort.

During the High Holidays, the number of people attending services at Hillel tends to skyrocket, especially the out-of-state students with no family in Miami. This year’s Rosh Hashanah services drew more than 200 guests for services and dinner. The turnout left the Hillel staff excited and anticipating an even greater number for Yom Kippur, which begins at sundown Friday.

“Rosh Hashanah fell during the middle of the week, leaving students with classes they weren’t able to miss or get out of,” Fisher said. “With Kol Nidre for Yom Kippur falling on Friday, students have no excuse of not going to class, so I expect the turnout to be much greater.”

Fisher, who is also studying to be a rabbi, finds joy in expressing and sharing her Jewish knowledge with others. At Rosh Hashanah services, Fisher produced breakout sessions and sermons where she spoke of destiny. This encouraged those who attended to observe their own potential and ability to be true to themselves.

“After one time at Hillel, I’ve grown to love it,” said Emma Drooks, a sophomore who has no family in Miami. “I came to services just to observe the holiday, but I left feeling like I had a new family and home.”

Realizing that she now has a new place to call home on campus, Drooks is happily ready to go back to services this weekend and feels comfortable in doing so.

Kol Nidre services begin at 6:30 p.m.

Friday. Yom Kippur services continue at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, followed by Yizkor and Neilah at 6 p.m. The period is marked by intensive prayer and fasting.

Right after Neilah will be breakfast Oneg. For the first time ever, a small charge of $12 was asked for the Rosh Hashanah dinner to help alleviate the expenses. Fisher said there will be no charge for Yom Kippur’s breakfast meal because staff would like for more people to stay after services.

Junior Cameron Brodeur has learned over the years to appreciate Hillel’s benefits, especially after attending Birthright in Israel through Hillel. Birthright is a free 10day heritage trip to Israel for Jewish people between the ages of 18 and 26.

“Birthright changed my life, and so did Hillel,” Brodeur said. “They were there for me every step of the way and did everything possible to make sure I could get onto that trip. They are some of the most incredible people I have ever met.”

In addition to High Holiday services, Hillel puts on many other events throughout the year, giving students the ability to be involved with their faith year-round. With volunteer aspects such as Challah for Hunger or its annual fundraiser, Style Mitzvah, students can find something to be involved in or even just make friends by attending Shabbat services and complimentary dinner on Friday nights.

IF YOU GO WHAT/WHEN: Kol Nidre services will be held 6:30 p.m. Friday.

Yom Kippur services will be at 9:30 a.m. Saturday. Yizkor and Neilah will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday.

CRIME AND SAFETY

Safety Fair alerts campus of new texting ban UMPD, FDOT team up to educate students

BY ASHLEY MARTINEZ ASSISTANT EDITOR

The University of Miami Police Department (UMPD) and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) cohosted the third annual Safety Fair on Wednesday.

“The fair has always focused on travel safety, but had a special emphasis on texting and driving this year,” said John Gulla, crime prevention officer for UMPD. “This generation is generally more text-oriented,” he said. “And so the campaign itself, and of course us, because we deal with campus specifically, we’re going to deal with that age group mostly. So we feel it’s really relevant for us because of that.”

FDOT’s state-wide “Put-it-Down” campaign has focused on educating people on the dangers of texting and driving

with the University of Miami for the past two years.

On Oct. 1, a new law in Florida will be enforced forbidding drivers from texting.

According to Carlos Sarmiento, FDOT community traffic safety program coordinator, texting and driving will now be a secondary offense, meaning drivers must be pulled over for something else, like speeding or not wearing a seat belt, and then, if the officer has seen the driver texting, issue an additional citation for this offense.

“The whole purpose of the campaign is to create awareness of the law, but even more than that is to correct the bad habits by doing the smart thing and putting the phone down,” Sarmiento said.

Various student groups were involved, such as Pier 21, UM’s BikeSafe and WalkSafe programs and the Association of Commuter Students (ACS). Daniel Acosta was representing ACS and felt that as commuters, supporting safe driving and the new law is important.

“I think it’s a good thing, because I know a lot of my friends text and drive, and it’s something that’s really dangerous, and I’ve driven behind my friends, and they’re like swerving around,” he said. “It’s bad, so hopefully that will deter some people from doing that and, you know, make the roads a little safer.”

To highlight the danger of drinking and driving, police officers instructed students in walking a line the same way they would instruct someone pulled over for a DUI. They allowed students to walk the line sober and then walk it again with “fatal goggles” that stimulated being drunk at night at the legal blood alcohol level, between .08 and .10.

“It was pretty difficult, we had to put on the beer goggles, which obviously made walking the line very difficult,” sophomore David Simonetti said. “You couldn’t tell what was straight, you had no depth perception. I had no idea where I was walking.”

UM drops three spots to No. 47 in ‘Best Colleges’ list

U.S. News & World Report alters its ranking methodology

BY ALEXANDER GONZALEZ NEWS EDITOR

U.S. News & World Report ranked the University of Miami No. 47 in the 2014 edition of the “Best Colleges” list that was released Tuesday.

The university remains the No. 1 school in Florida, but dropped three places from last year’s rankings. In 2011, UM climbed nine spots, earning its highest ranking since U.S. News began publishing the lists in 1983.

Executive Vice President and Provost Thomas J. LeBlanc released a statement on Tuesday about UM’s continued mission to improve the student selection process.

“The University of Miami takes pride in the diversity, excellence and successes of our student body,” he said. “We have taken strategic steps to improve student selectivity, retention and graduation rates, all of which are reflected in the U.S. News and World Report.”

UM’s average freshman retention rate is 91 percent and the four-year graduate rate is 69 percent, according to the report released by U.S. News.

Each college or university is ranked based on formulas that combine several measures such as graduation rates, standardized test score and student-to-faculty ratios.

The methodology made significant changes for the 2014 rankings. The weight given to high school class rank dropped from

40 percent to 25 percent because the proportion of high school students graduating with a class rank reported on their transcripts is falling, according to U.S. News.

The weight of SAT and ACT scores of the freshman class was increased from 50 percent to 60 percent.

The incoming freshmen class of 2012 had average SAT scores that exceeded 1300, and the percentage of students scoring between 1400 and 1600 increased from 24 percent to 26 percent, according to an annual report by the Faculty Senate Committee on Academic Standards. The average ACT score was 29.7.

Student Government President Bhumi Patel says UM’s top Florida ranking is a testament to its motivated students.

“Student Government is proud that Miami is once again the top academic institution in Florida and that our school is continually striving for improvement and success,” she said.

Freshman Alina Zerpa used U.S. News’s rankings last year, but still considered other factors like finding a spirited school.

“I wanted a school where I would have as much spirit as I wanted and know that I am getting a good education,” she said.

Zerpa feels that her decision might have changed if UM was not No.1 in Florida.

“I would probably go to where No. 1 is in that case,” she said.

Senior Michael Anderson believes that prospective students should choose a school based on themselves and not the rankings.

He believes people should consider UM’s reputation while finding employment in Miami.

“Just because a school is rated ‘X’ that does not mean it’s the school for you,” he said. “UM’s probably going to win every time you’re meshing degrees in Miami. It’s the best school by far in Florida.”

Entrepreneur raises thousands of dollars in two weeks Alumnus builds shoe company, Category 5

BY OLIVER REDSTEN CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Jason Shuman always knew he wanted to start his own business.

So in the spring of 2013, almost three years after the formation of his boat shoe company, Category 5, Shuman entered the University of Miami Business Plan Competition. Shuman won first place for his business plan and Category 5 took home the grand prize of $30,000.

With the help of this money, what started as a small college start-up company has grown into a nationally recognized brand.

Category 5 now has a staff of four full-time employees, three sales representatives and 80 campus representatives at universities across the United States. Retailers carry Category 5 products nationwide.

The company has had so much success that it has decided to create a second line of men’s shoes as well as a brand new line of boat shoes for women.

“After we released our first line of men’s shoes, we started getting great feedback from women who loved our products,” Shuman said. “They wanted to customize their own boat shoes with sorority letters and monograms, so we decided to create a product that would allow them to do that.”

Category 5 chose the business start-up website, Kickstarter.com, to unveil its new women’s shoes and a second line of men’s shoes. Consumers have the opportunity to “back the project” by either making a financial contribution or ordering an item directly off the new lines of footwear while products are still in the prototype stage.

“In order to place an order for our next two lines of shoes, the manufacturer requires a minimum order quantity,” Shuman said.

“That’s where the $15,000 number comes from.”

With 18 days remaining in the project, Category 5 had raised close to $14,000 of the $15,000 necessary as of Wednesday evening.

Shuman maintains that he owes much of his company’s success to UM’s Business Plan Competition.

“The competition allowed me to expand my network, fine-tune the pitch for investors and go through the process of creating a business,” Shuman said.

The money did not hurt either.

“When you’re in start-ups, money is always an issue,” he said.

Susy Alvarez-Diaz, the coordinator of the program, says she is pleased with the way the competition was able to contribute to Category 5’s success.

“The competition did exactly what we wanted it to do for our students … it provided the seed money to turn an idea into a business,” she said.

Category 5 was born in 2010, shortly before Shuman’s sophomore year at UM. Shuman, along with his brother and three best friends, was frustrated with the uncomfortable break-in period and short life span of traditional boat shoes. The five men decided to collaborate and create a more “comfortable and durable” alternative for consumers.

Shuman believes one of the primary reasons for his company’s success is the customization process of his shoes.

“Category 5 is the only company that I know of to offer custom embossing on footwear after production,” he said.

Embossing is essentially a heat stamp, which gives consumers the opportunity to add a custom design to their shoes. This

feature has been especially popular among fraternity and sorority members, who use the embossing to imprint their Greek letters onto their shoes.

The Category 5 boat shoes also offer “unparalleled comfort” in the boat shoe industry, Shuman said.

“We added an EVA foam insole for maximum comfort and redesigned the back heel so it fits more like a sneaker,” he said.

Consumers seem to appreciate Category 5’s emphasis on comfort.

“I now prefer them over any boat shoes in the market. They are comfortable to the point that you never want to take them off,” says one customer testimonial from the company’s Kickstarter page.

Alvarez-Diaz believes that in addition to these unique features, Shuman is also largely responsible for Category 5’s success.

“Jason has the ability to position this product in a niche that hasn’t been explored yet. He is also very effective at using social media to advertise,” she said.

Going forward, Shuman has big plans for his business.

“Ultimately, I want to grow Category 5 into a strong lifestyle brand that people can relate to,” he said.

Slut-shaming and misogyny embedded in universities across the U.K. must come to an end. It’s time to celebrate women’s sexuality.

Unfriending breaks up friendships Friends come and go. At the outset of college, students move away from home and soon see high school friendships dissolve.

Then, their group of floor mates from freshman year, once tightknit, may slowly unravel.

College is a time for personal growth and self-exploration. We become more absorbed in our own lives and grow busier with classes, clubs and internships.

That leaves little time for long text conversations or weekly Skype calls. It’s only natural for relationships to change.

But the age of social media has transformed the way we make, keep and lose friends.

With the click of a button, a person can “unfriend” another.

This has come to be the final say of a real-life friendship. But how does someone get to that point? Is it the right route to take?

Everyone has gone through a “friend divorce” at some point

in their lives, for one reason or another. This can be caused by an argument that leads to “a tangle of awkward exchanges, made-up excuses, hurt feelings and lingering ill will,” as The New York Times explains it.

On one hand, a person may end the friendship but continue to interact with them online. On the other, someone may choose to click “unfriend” but, once the anger has died down, will act like nothing has changed the next time you cross paths.

While the aforementioned options may not be the best way to end a friendship, the decision to “unfriend” someone seems unnecessary. It may be trivial to take “unfriending” so personally, but social media has become so pervasive that “unfriending” seems like a harsh measure.

New York Magazine editor Maureen O’Connor, in a column she wrote titled “All My Exes Live

in Texts,” pondered the question of why the social media generation never really breaks up. Her article went viral. It’s almost impossible these days to completely lose touch with an ex or to avoid knowing what they’re doing. The same applies to former friends.

Because of social media, “friend divorces” aren’t as simple as one would hope. Dozens of photos and old memories will still be there, and their online presence is not erased. You may notice the ex-friend become available on Google chat, or another person might retweet the exfriend on Twitter.

If you’re going to remain friends or followers, be courteous in person as well. Liking their photos is easy. A real greeting matters more than 20 likes.

UK should follow Miami’s hookup habits

M

iami – images of sun, sea and sex – right? When I arrived here as an exchange student two weeks ago, I was informed endlessly by those around me – from the shuttle bus driver to the locals – that “Miami is a singles town,” and “everything goes.” This attitude is the reason LAYLA HAIDRANI there exists an embedded hookup CONTRIBUTING culture in Miami. From the Grove COLUMNIST and South Beach to frat parties and tailgates, students in Miami have a range of places to go in search of their next hookup.

While I celebrate this, I can’t help but notice that this attitude is starkly different from universities in England, where I have been studying for the past two years. The hookup scene is relatively similar, but the antagonism fostered toward women in the United Kingdom who engage in casual sex is far worse. For university students in England, there is more of a stigma against those who engage in casual sex. A study by the The National Student,

a publication for students in the U.K., revealed that half of students would lose respect for female undergraduates who frequently engaged in promiscuous behavior.

In Miami, however, it seems that women are encouraged to enjoy the sexual freedom of their male counterparts. Thus, it is no wonder that the University of Miami was featured in Unigo’s list of the “Top 10 Schools Where Everybody Gets Lucky.” That is not to say that sexually liberated women in Miami are exempt from slander. The word “ratchet” is thrown around by many male students at UM, as I observed at my first tailgate.

Hooking up is not the end-all, be-all of a college experience. Plenty of students have a fulfilling four years without the need to “hookup.” But there are lessons to be learned from UM students. Here, women are not restricted by societal expectations. They can have as much or as little sexual freedom as they desire without fear of disrepute. Slut-shaming and misogyny embedded in universities across the U.K. must come to an end. It’s time to celebrate women’s sexuality.

OPINION

Football, academics not defined by numbers W

e have seen a recent change in our university’s rankings. On Sunday, the Associated Press named our football team No. 15 in the country. On Tuesday, the U.S. News & PATRICK QUINLAN World Report ranked STAFF UM No. 47 in, you COLUMNIST know, academics. (I’d like to note that the University of Miami is ahead of the University of Florida in both the classroom and the gridiron).

I’m not exactly sure which is more important to our campus. Apparently, as these rankings would have us believe, our school has gotten better at football in the past week – going up more than 10 spots – but worse at school in the past year – dropping three spots. Is that really the case? What do rankings even mean?

In football, nothing. That might sound like something a coach would say in a post-game conference, but, the truth is, where our team ends up in mid-win-

ter is determined by wins and losses, not weekly rankings along the way.

In academics, it doesn’t mean all that much either: Once a school is above a certain threshold, like the top 50 universities, the differences become negligible. You’ll learn the same macroeconomics at Harvard that you would at UM. There is, however, a symbolic importance of rankings. A good football ranking will attract media attention, and it certainly is great that more than 100 potential football recruits were at Sun Life Stadium this past weekend to watch the Hurricanes beat the Gators.

In academics, rankings normally aren’t important within the “top-tier” category except for bragging rights, but UM is a notable exception.

UM first made it into the top 50 national universities in 2010, which seems like a long time ago in Twitter years, but is actually very recent in college years.

Within the past decade, UM ranked in the high ‘60s, which is scary if you realize that’s near FSU. As such, when our rankings shoot up, and we rise past schools that are two or three times older, people pay attention.

Long-term perceptions change, and the quality of UM rises in tandem.

If college is nothing more than a talent magnet, then it pays to be magnetic.

As the school sustains its rise, everyone and everything associated with it benefits, such as alumni whose diplomas attract more job offers or the city of Miami that can drain higher quality talent from other places.

The problem is that we haven’t sustained our rise. We fell three spots. And the problem there lies with the rankings.

Simply put, the rankings are a poor measure of an actual education, and the variables measured are subject to change.

They’re only “indicators” of whether students learn or not, and they don’t take into account how many graduates get jobs, for example.

Why, then, have we dropped?

This year, the U.S. News & World Report decided to put more emphasis on graduation rates than incoming SAT scores, focusing on how many incoming students graduate in four or six years.

In the long run, this is probably a good thing, as a growing body of literature suggests that low graduation rates

are partially responsible for the explosive growth in tuition, arguably the biggest challenge of college today.

In the short run, however, our school has seen such a phenomenal rise of incoming SAT scores – we’ve gone up 50 points in the past three years alone – that our graduation rates are lagging behind, and the data don’t reflect our school properly.

In a statement to The Miami Herald, Provost Thomas LeBlanc said that the school will focus on doing everything possible to ensure that students graduate with a University of Miami degree. The administration is working toward bettering our education and our image.

This raises the important point of what we students can do to also affect the rankings.

At football games, it’s simple: Be really loud, and our team has a better chance of winning. With academics, it’s also simple: Graduate on time, and your degree means more.

‘It’s Only Change’ impresses with eclectic mix of genres

BY MARLEE LISKER STAFF WRITER

Quincy Mumford and the Reason Why released their latest album, “Its Only Change,” this summer, advertising it as a mixture of jazz, blues, soul, rock, funk, hip-hop and more. It seems impossible that one CD could contain such a variety of sounds – until you sit and listen.

Mumford has a folksy voice, like an edgier John Mayer, with a blues quality that makes some of his songs reminiscent of modern folk artists such as Eric Hutchinson. However, the diversity present in each song gives it a distinct quality, making it a striking piece of musical fusion.

The album opens on a (literal) high note with “Change,” which starts out sounding like a folk-rock song, but quickly transitions into a mellow, almost reggae style, as Mumford urges his audience, “don’t be afraid, here comes a change.”

THE MIAMI HURRICANE

Throughout the CD, it seems that the band favors simpler lyrics such as these. This can be problematic when they err towards cliches, as with the track “Eventually,” which refers to “white picket fences” and states, “I know this life can all be fun and games.”

However, the sound remains strong with the album’s second track, “For You.” The song opens with the blues-y sound of background singers chanting “woah, for you,” instantly hypnotizing listeners. It may throw some people off when the song switches back to a reggae beat, but the band pulls off the conversion well.

Certain tracks have a slightly edgier vibe, such as the third song “Under the Covers,” as well as the song, “No Love.” “Under the Covers” has more of an old-school jazz feel, with the introduction of brass instrumentals and a rolling beat. Mumford’s voice has a slick, sensual dimension as he tries to tempt a girl to come to bed with him.

Sept. 12 - Sept. 15, 2013

For an even sharper breakaway from the mellowness of other tracks, there’s “No Love,” which has an edgy beat and soft vocals that bite with each scathing verse.

Another standout track is “Time Won’t Wait,” which starts soft before a few quick guitar chords speed up the tempo and add an optimistic feel. Near the end, there is a fast-paced spoken verse that will startle listeners who have relaxed into the sound of Mumford’s mellow vocals.

The most impressive aspect of “It’s Only Change” is how quickly the band transitions between genres within each track. The album has everything from electronic mix to brassy instrumentals to keening vocals, ensuring that it will not grow stale after the first listen.

Though the lyrics sometimes lack imagination, the sound quality stands out as a distinctive blend that is perfect for listeners who want to break away from standard sounds.

COMMENTARY

Budding scandal at OSU raises eyebrows

L

AN OVERVIEW OF SPORTS ILLUSTRATED’S INVESTIGATION INTO This week, Sports Illustrated (SI) is publishing the results of its 10-month investigation into the rise of Oklahoma State football. Below is a breakdown of their report.

MONEY

OSU athletes allegedly took underthe-table payments from boosters and coaches. Some players er games.

One startling segment of SI’s report addresses rampant academic fraud. Athletes stayed eligible by getting grades changed or having work done for them.

DRUGS

Former Oklahoma State players who spoke to SI reporters revealed that teammates used marijuana before games, and some were involved in dealing drugs.

The investigation alleges that recruits had sex with girls in an OSU group called “Orange Pride,” who hosted them, clearly violating NCAA rules.

THE FALLOUT

ACADEMICS

SEX

As Sports Illustrated continues to publish sections of its expose through Tuesday, it will examine how athletes were stranded er their playing days.

es Miles used to tell his players, “Academics f irst, football second.”

But a new Sports Illustrated (SI) report that alleges rampant misconduct

BY SPENCER DANDES at Oklahoma State SPORTS EDITOR University suggests Miles – the coach there from 2000-2004 – held up two f ingers when he said “f irst” and one f inger for “second.”

Facetious as Miles may have been, it’s a f itting way to illustrate what were clearly very skewed priorities at OSU. The Sports Illustrated piece mentions cash payments up to $25,000 for football players, including bonuses based on performance. There are allegations about illicit booster activity that make Nevin Shapiro look like an altar boy by comparison.

It’s easy to shake off the budding Oklahoma State ordeal as just one more entry in an appalling string of recent college sports scandals.

But the big picture here is troubling.

The system isn’t working.

The mega-booster T. Boone Pickens still thinks Oklahoma State is committed to “principled sportsmanship,” according to a statement he released Tuesday.

Pickens, who has given hundreds of millions to the Cowboys, said the expose is not indicative of how the program operates of late.

But at this point, does it even matter?

The allegations are eye-popping, and if proven, they negate the remarkably quick turnaround from loser to winner that OSU pulled off.

Players quoted in the academics portion of the SI tell-all suggest that schoolwork was meaningless. Thirteen former Cowboys said they cheated to stay eligible, and they divulged 16 other names in their interviews.

Homework completed by tutors, answers to exams, even getting class credit Sept. 12 - Sept. 15, 2013

without showing up: These allegations should concern anyone with a pulse.

Instead of educating their studentathletes – that is, setting them up for life after football – OSU coaches apparently conspired with teachers and administrators to keep players eligible by any means necessary.

It is unnerving that the leaders of these programs are comfortable straying so far from the rules.

They do so in order to f ield the best team and, ultimately, win the most games. But, ironically, most who get caught end up costing their programs scholarships, postseason appearances or even lucrative TV deals.

Some people think it’s a matter of when, not if, the nation’s current football powerhouses come tumbling down, too.

In this age of NCA A scandal, it’s almost natural for fans to grow cynical and wonder why top dogs like Alabama or LSU have no dirt against them.

Are there programs that succeed without breaking the rules? Given the cutthroat culture of today’s college sports, is it even possible?

Schools are demonstrating time after time a willingness to get ahead by bending the rules. Programs like USC, Auburn and Oregon (all title contenders within the last decade) have been exposed for misconduct on the recruiting trail.

And recruiting violations are obviously different than compensation issues, which are wholly separate from academic fraud. But together they demonstrate a huge spectrum of wrongdoing that can go unnoticed by the governing NCA A for years.

The NCA A is trying to tackle problems like the amateur status of its student-athletes and the role of boosters within athletic departments.

But for now, their inability to keep programs in check is all too apparent.

One might even call it a lack of institutional control.

Dear Anne Hathaway in “The Devil Wears Prada,”

DEAR V My boss won’t stop riding me...

My boss is a tyrant of Machiavellian proportions. With my psychotic boss, nothing you do is ever quite right. She sets traps, asking you to do things and no matter how hard you think of accomplishing it her way, it’s wrong and you are to blame. You must pay her A LOT of attention and get her things that normal people could do for themselves. According to her, you’re NEVER as busy as she is.

One thing particularly maddening about her is that, for others, she puts on a pleasant facade and stands up for the best causes to enhance her appearance. But I’m the one who witnesses her ugliness, which makes it all the harder to complain to anyone about her vindictive passive aggression.

Although I love my job, kissing Cruella de Vil’s ass all the time is becoming increasingly hard to deal with. Can you help me figure out a way to stay sane when my boss is insane?

Sincerely, Distraught Dan

There are two things we all have to keep in mind when it comes to difficult bosses: Meryl Streep will never remember your name, and there will always be a sassy British assistant to tell you you’re doing it all wrong.

There’s no reason to throw your smartphone into a Parisian fountain just yet, there are ways to get on Meryl’s good side.

Anticipate what she wants before she wants it. And from the wise words of Stanley Tucci, stop whining and man up! People can sense your negativity, and you will very quickly become the office drag.

Because she’s right. You’re probably not as busy as she is.

If you love your job, and you’re willing to do anything to stick with it, gird your loins and do the work you’re supposed to be doing. The best way to stay sane in these types of situations is to be able to live with the sat-

isfaction that you’re doing your job to the best of your ability.

No one in your office is there to give you a gold star or put your picture up for employee of the month. You’re in the big leagues now, kid, and it’s a dog-eat-dog world.

Also, stop coming up with ridiculous ideas just to get on her good side ... Florals?

For spring? Groundbreaking. Meryl sees through your sh!*.

If you’re asking me for some quick tips, here they are: put your phone on vibrate (that incessant ringing is tormenting you at night, isn’t it?), and next time she asks you to get her steak from Smith & Wollensky, make sure she hasn’t already had lunch.

Let me know when your life goes up in smoke; that means it’s time for a promotion.

V P.S. “She’s not happy unless everyone around her is panicked, nauseous or suicidal.”
