Faculty or Staff ...?

I must be getting old. No wait, I must be really old and look it.
May be it is just this past week with the midterm, papers and the extra course I am doing I aged faster than ever.

This whole last week, everyone I ran into at Berkeley (almost 2 dozens of people) asked me a question. The situations varied from getting flu shots, to dropping my daughter at daycare, Haas gala, to Diwali celebration at my wife's friend's house. I was asked:
Are you faculty or staff at Cal?
When I say, student, they go owwww! and try to suppress their disbelief.
Now, I wonder if I age at this rate whether I will qualify for senior discount without anyone asking for my Id.

"be yourself no matter what they say"

Forget about her coloring,I think ones is never too old to study.

I was forty 44 when i when back to a training school to become an assistant.

I have been working for two years already inspite of my friends warning about wasting time.

So don't bother about questioning..;

Go on studing your MBA program.
