Dear Life: Why does every other faculty hate on business students all the time? It’s not our fault if we make up the majority of the school. It’s not our fault that we use up space because we actually do work. It’s not our fault if we know what we want to do with our lives. But you know? It’s alright, it’s okay. You’re going to work for US someday. Sincerely, Why Don’t YOU Try Calculating Combined Tax Problems?
Dear Life: So I saw Bacchus at the IRC formal and they were giving out condoms. I took one ‘cause with a face like this why wouldn’t I? Anyways two weeks later (still not used...) I’m having lunch with my mother and she asks if I have a full stamp card at Marble Slab. Thanks to my own stupidity I gave her my wallet to look through to see if I had one as I was paying... We both saw it. If I get a “safe sex” book in my Christmas stocking I’m moving out. Sincerely, Condoms are not Collectables, Use that Shit Real Quick.
Dear Life: Thank you for my severely awesome writing skills that are able to get me a 65 on an essay that I put zero effort into, only used two out of the five sources the prof required, and was two pages short of what was asked. Sincerely, Voldemort
Dear Life: Why do you insist on teasing me with Christmas carols and giving me a false hope that we are nearing Christmas break when 1. Exams haven’t even started and 2. There is no bloody snow! I thought we were in the snow belt! Sincerely, ‘Tis the Season to be Jolly... Not!
Dear Life: Why is it that girls feel the need to publish their life problems in their Facebook statuses/MSN names? These Negative Nancys and Sad Sallys might as well put “I am looking for pity and attention, please feel sorry for me” instead of writing about how much they hate their university boyfriend that they didn’t think would cheat on them or about failing another mid-term leading to another drunken night trying to pickup at the Turret where the girl-to-guy ratio is 25:1. Looking for pity does not make people pity you, it just makes people want to punch you in the face or kick you in the Ugg boot. Sincerley, Waaa, Waaa, Waaa
Dear Life: Why do the employees at the Pita Shack on campus suck? Moping around like it is the worst day of their life - everyday. And really, learn how to roll pitas. I’m sick of getting tomatoes and cucumbers and sauces all over me. Sincerely, Give Your Employees a Tutorial on Pita Rolling.

Dear Business student,
THAT is why we all hate you
Sincerely, everyone else
Dear Business Student.
You answered your own question. I also find it hilarious that you think you're the largest faculty on campus. You're not. Thats the Faculty of Arts' medal
Just because your degree is, quote on quote, "useful" after University doesnt make you inherantly better than everybody else - but your arrogance makes everybody else sick.
Its alright - your job will be outsourced to someone who actually knows how to research WITHOUT an attitude one day.
Dear business student, i will never work for you. i will be the hot young girl your father marries, and who makes your life hell simply because of your attitude. you may have brains, but i have looks| sincerely, your future step mother
Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Very well said! I couldn't agree with that statement more!
Very well said! I couldn't agree with that statement more!
i wont hate the game, ill hate the dick who wrote the comment its not a game, you think you will be successful right after school... i see you failing. like you said, business is huge, what makes you think you can beat everyone else out of a job who is probably better then you? arts and sciences are more diverse. aka, they are better. also...we aren't as full of ourselves. arrogance gets you nowhere.
Wow, you sound really intelligent.
wow, you sound like an ass.
hahaha oh man, bussiness kids are not going any further then anyone else here... its actually kind of unfortunate that the program makes them think so.. pooor bussiness kids.. Did i mention IM A BUSSINESS STUDENT.. However Im smart enought to know, they are deffinitly leading us up to fail. Just sayin
That's alright, that's okay, you'll be begging for money from me one day once your failed internet start-up company goes broke and your dumped your whole life's savings into a project without any sort of a fall-back or contingency plan because your nurtured arrogance thanks to the business program made you think you were indestructible and untouchable and then all 5 employees you hired and paid too much will all want your head for putting them out of a job, your wife will leave you because you have no money, or because you have no soul, or both, and your satanic spawn of a son will grow up hating his daddy because you were never able to buy him that red fire truck for christmas because you were so broke and spent your last few dimes on a bottle of Sailor Jerry's in a pathetic attempt to drown out your miserable, sorrowful memories of the last few years while you, in your drunken stupor, begin to wander the city, homeless and broke, you will trip on a rail, fall over the side of a bridge to your certain death, and float downstream like a piece of forgotten drift wood.
Dear, Why Don’t YOU Try Calculating Combined Tax Problems?
Good luck becoming a CEO of some morally deficient company someday, just like every other Laurier business student hopes to do. Hope there are enough positions for all of you. Also I don't intend to sell my soul like you do, so I will not in fact work for you someday.
Sincerely, actually has a soul.
Dear Why Don't YOU Try Calculating Combined Tax Problems
I've taken business, and Combined problems aren't hard. Suck it up, we all do
Dear: I can calculate combined tax problems therefore I am better than you....
First off, anyone can calculate "combined tax problems". You just need to learn how to do this. It's not hard. So suck it up, that's the program you chose to be in.
It's not our fault that everyone hates you because of your arrogance. It's not our fault that it's going to take you 20 years to be in a decent position. It's not our fault that you're going to be out a job when you graduate, because theres not enough jobs for you. It's not our fault that you are going to have to compete with actual business schools, such as Richard Ivey and Schulick. Unless you have a 90average within the business program, do not speak. You are not smarter than us, you are not better than us, you are not cooler than us. You do not do more work than us.
Have fun being the little coffee bitch for the first five years of your "business" career.
Sincerely, Jesus.
Dear All,
I think we all underestimate the impact our corresponding degrees have on us. Unfortunately, University - while idealistically meant to broaden your knowledge - can have a limiting effect on your point of view.
As a 4th year business student I spend too much time thinking about the dollar, I am too concerned with comparing my future career with those around me.
Yet, I am still confident that I can work hard and contribute to the organizations that add value in our society. My contribution is, in part, enabled by the appreciation I have for the learning and perspective that others hold around me.
I wish we could focus more on learning from each other rather than how this particular business student concentrates on what knowledge makes him more valuable than others.
The first week of classes is a good time to 'sit in' on random classes. I plan on checking out a few global studies classes. Remember - the professor can make for an entertaining lecture - especially if you aren't worried about taking notes.

If you don't like Pita Shack don't go to it. Simple. Pilot Pita is always an option. Bitching on here isn't helping yourself or anyone, complain to the shift leader if you don't like what you get.
Biz kid... least we have souls
I'm really disappointed in the backlash that one comment has gotten in response to one individual student. How do you expect your points to come across when all you are doing is casting judgments on the entire faculty? It really makes us all look bad and makes you really no better than "the soulless biz kids". If you really think the program is that terrible, consider yourself lucky you aren't in it - and MOVE ON.
On another note, have you ever considered how the business students at this school who aren't selfish-money-guzzling-yahoos feel about all of these negative stereotypes? It creates an awful environment full of prejudice and makes us feel ashamed of our faculty and select idiots who comprise a small percentage of it.
I've have friends who refuse to even admit they are in business when they are first introduced to someone.
Food for thought,
Closet Biz Kid
Dear Life, Lets not kid our selves, kin kids are JUST as annoying as Biz Kids.. Kin tours, and Kin Christmas? Do they not have enough friends that they have to start organizing their own parties with only their faculty, sorry kin kids, but we would be glad to have you at our parties, just shut your yap on the whole kid tour business, it makes you look lonely and deprived of friends.
