The "You know when" series ... MBA

Something that struck out when i was having a conversation with couple of my colleagues and right now expanded after a bit of brain-storming...
And yeah.. all are welcome to add on to the list :)

You know you would be dining with an MBA,
when he quotes Subprime Crisis in the US as a reason for his not Tipping in India.

You know you would be married to an MBA,
when your honeymoon would have a performance review.

You know you would be hunting with an MBA,
when he blames Global warming for his lack of any catch.

You know you are chatting with an MBA,
when he creates his own abbreviations and gives his own expansions.

You know you would be traveling with an MBA,
when he takes the window seat and says he has been strategically positioned.

You know you would be reading the book of an MBA,
when it says "All time best seller" though you might have been the first person to buy the copy.

You know you would be selling a product to an MBA,
when you end up buying whatever he is selling.

You know you would be in a literary club with an MBA,
when he would claim to have read all the books by only scanning through the book reviews.

You know you would be talking to an MBA,
when every word would be followed with "Strategy" "frameworks" or even better "Strategic Framework".

You know you would be studying with an MBA,
when he says Groups works are to be done individually(other than him of course) and individual assignments are to be done by a Group.

You know that the door-to-door salesman is an MBA,
when he asks if he brings out his laptop and a Multimedia presentation.

You know you would be working with an MBA,
when he gives you all the credit but takes away your Hikes.
