The Employee Trades His Labor for a Wage...

As I sit here in Agricultural Accounting, I think about how much I would rather be in my Middle East Class.

I do love my teacher for this class, this man who looks like the man from Up. ("MR. FREDRICKSON! I found the snipe! Are snipes big? Are they colorful? Do they like chocolate?")

I don't like how the language of accounting is something completely skewed from normal language. Since when did 'gross' mean whole instead of large? Why is credit sometimes addition and sometimes subtraction?

Brother Anderson, my teachy, said that there were some monks who developed this system. I would like to find these monks and question them,politely, about whythehecktheywouldstinkindevelopsuchasystem! I think that I would like to live in a monastery though... the shaved heads, the comfy robes, the mood music...
