High School Grads...Rejoice!!!
Another big reality night...The Apprentice hit the airwaves with a new spin (and a new look?)
First on the spin...
High school grads - Street Smart Team (SS)
VS
College Grads - Book Smart Team. (BS)
I got a great giggle when I heard the premise. I do not have a college diploma. I do pretty darn good for myself without one. I always dreaded looking at the board of a company I was previously employed at. A degree was needed for every job. Yes, even answering the phones! Apparently, they felt they got a "better" employee when they had a diploma attached to their hip.
I think better employees are made from being hungry. Gee, I need to feed my family. Need to pay the rent. I need a job.
Amazingly, I can put a sentence or two together annnnndddd I clean up well too.
Sometimes I worry if I ever lost my job and couldn't find another in my field...What would I do?
Then it hits me...Why worry...I will work anywhere, doing anything to make ends meet.
Many college grads feel that waiting tables or flipping burgers is beneath them.... that's what makes last nights episode so great.
Running a BK - flipping burgers, running cash registers and selling your product.
Many of the BS team had never run a register or walked into a BK. They didn't do fast food.
Needless to say the SS team kicked ass, took names and were delightful to watch.
The new look comes from the fact that usually...The contestants are beautiful. Model perfect.
Did anyone notice that these guys look like average folks? Another great touch I might add.
Biggest chuckle of the night...When the BS team was huddled in a room singing Kumbaya like they were back in their dorm rooms in college.
Biggest laugh - From a SS player....Hey, if I get beat tonight, I can say well he's a Harvard grad. If he gets beat tonight, he was beaten by some schmo from Tampa.
