What I do in simple words

(Using Up-Goer Five)

I work in a place where students from all over the world can learn all about the world. I look after about 70 people (many are teachers) who study how businesses work and how they could work better and then they tell students and write papers all about what they have learnt.

I have to look after the money. I try to work out (guess) how much money the group will spend over a year and the I try to make sure we don't spend more than that. We often spend more in one area but less in another so it evens out.

I also have to watch how much work everyone does. I check how much time people are in class, how much time they should spend studying the outside world, how much they should be helping out at work, and see if they are doing too much or not enough. Most do too much.

People come and talk to me about problems they have at work and I try to help fix them. Some people come and shout at me because I tell them I can't fix a problem because they shouldn't have done the thing that caused the problem in the first place.

I help people with their computers, writing, ways to talk to students, other teachers and business people so they can learn about managing in business. I manage the paper side of getting people to work for us all the time or just now and again.

I don't kill anyone. Sometimes I would like to but I can't find a place to hide the bodies.
