August 12: So Sorry Financial Aid

We are sorry
All lines are busy at this time
Please continue to hold
You will be answered as soon as possible

Estimated wait time
Three minutes

You have been listening
To the Weidner Big Band
Conducted by Professor Jim Weidner

The music fading out like a poorly tuned radio
Surges and rushes, the horns tinny and distant

I just want to pay my bill

  1. Gosh I hope you aren't still on hold. Three minutes is about my limit.

  2. How uncultured of you to put bill paying over a rare opportunity to listen to Professor Jim's big band!

  3. We have been on that call, on and off, for six years. I never got Professor Jim's big band, however. Which college owns you now?
