Mark: So how long have you two been into Chinese take-out, Mike? Mike: Ever since we became young urban professionals, of course. Mark: So what happened with business school, Mike? You must be the first drop-out they've had in years. Mike: I wouldn't be surprised. You have no idea what those places have become, Mark. First-year students are already talking about "greenmail" and "golden parachutes". It's just every man for himself! Halfway through my first year, I began to feel I was losing my grip on my principles. It seemed like I'd somehow placed my very soul in peril! So after months of agonizing over it, I finally admitted to myself that my choice of a career in business had been a terrible, terrible mistake! Mark: Wow...so that's when you decided to switch to advertising. Mike: Right. I just had to be me.
