Don't call me Dr. Airehead....

[Airehead]

... and I promise to never refer to myself in third person as Dr. Airehead.  Good golly Miss Molly some people are pompus.  I had a phone called today that went like this.  My secretary takes the a call and let's me know Dr. Ego is ont he phone.  I take the call and say hello this is Airehead.  Dr. Ego says, this is Dr Ego and I need, blah, blah, blah.  I say that we certainly can provide support but what they are asking is inapporpriate.  Dr. Ego then says and I quote, "Dr. Ego really needs this because of blah, blah, blah."  My response, "I am a bit confused. are there two Dr. Egos at your agency?  I don't usually hear people refer to themselves in third person."  

Dr. Ego was momentarily speechless and then said they speak that way to avoid confusion.  I respond, "It didn't work.  I was confused."

She responds that she is sorry Dr. Airehead.  I respond, apology accepted, please call me Airehead.  May i ask if the ink is dry on your diploma yet?  (OK, I didn't say that lat line but I thought it.)

As you know Dr. Airehead, it is a long road and there is bound to be some pride in the title as earned.   I do agree with your sentiment though.

Wilbur, the title gives me a sense of accomplishment but the pride comes in the evidence that I am making a difference in the lives of the children trusted to me and their families.

She may just be wacky but I will withhold a final opinion until she comes to spend a day learning about our school.

That all said, I will have great pride when I finally get my pilot's license finished (ASEL not cool stuff like you.)

 

And don't call me Dr. Airehead, please call me Aire.

I think a display of boastful pride should be expected from someone named "Dr Ego".

ASEL,  I am impressed.  My goal for next summer is ASES.  WoD_P says she has no interest in getting her taildragger endorsement.

That comes with experience so take your time.  I am also a Check Airman and we don't look for perfection, just realization and correction of an error.
