stretching the brain


Who knew that when I began tutoring over a year ago, that it would develop into a full-time job in an adjacent field? Got my official log-in this morning and am beginning to learn how to read/speak Bureaucratese.


I snagged my favorite work mug and settled in to read.

  1. Here's hoping that training will extend itself into other areas. I mean, bureaucratese ought to be good for something.

    1. Depending on the day, it either makes me feel brilliant or extremely dense.

  2. A former coworker of mine wants me to help her obtain grants and student visas for Western Africans. My experience for those applying to colleges is restricted to proofreading letters for teenagers for whom English is the 2nd to 4th language. I'm sure "Bureaucratese" would be of help in this area ;)!

    1. Has she contacted SEVIS? That's the only way to get student visas issued.

      Super glad it's the weekend and my eyes can take a break from the confusing words!!!
