life eh?

So Carver and Dan and I aren't exactly what you might call rule followers. Matter of fact, you could probably count all the rules we always follow on one hand. One hand with at least half the fingers blown off of it. We aren't antinomian exactly, we just have a deep understanding of the rules and why they exist and how to follow them to the benefit of all. We don't break rules that hurt other people or even inconvenience other people. Only the ones intended to save us from ourselves. All this is background though. You see Carver was turned in by someone on his floor for a few of the select rules which he had broken. This resulted in a meeting with the Resident Supervisor.

In a meeting such as this one, I would have, because of my passive agressive nature, most likely have not tried to defy anything, but would have played the "it was dumb and wrong, and I'll never do it again" angle. Carver, however, has balls. He very politley and very succinctly explained our philosophy and our logic behind our rulebreaking. The RS never really refuted anything that Carver said, shifting the focus and making vague statements to cover the document's complete lack of logical ground to stand on. He let Carver off with a mild warning for the most part, however the more serious of his crimes waranted a second meeting he said.

So we all speculated for the weeks after this first meeting what the next one could possibly entail. Rumors flew of the meeting including the higher-ups, the powers that be so to speak. We all wondered about probation and things of that nature. Well the meeting was today.

Apparently, they have decided to enlist him to essentiall help rewrite the whole Student Life Guide. I laughed for days.

Days.
