The problem is my father. Hes a self-made man and doesnt let me forget it for a minute. He keeps badgering me to be tops," although I have tried to make mm understand that not everybody can make the grade, or wants to. Is there anything wrong with being just an average guy? The double domes and eager beavers in our school are laughed at behind their backs.

Average guys seem happier and are better liked. They arent always in a sweat. They are also better rounded because they arent breaking their heads to excel in one thing like grades.

The station my boss prefers is a high frequency station and there must be something about the tone that reacts badly on my ears. He once had the radio on FM and it didnt bother me at all. Perhaps an ear specialist could explain this.

I must work to support my children, and this is a dream job. Dare I suggest to my boss that he turn the radio off, change stations or wear earphones? What do you say? -SOUND AND FURY Dear S. and A job that makes a nervous WTeck out of a woman is not a dream Job no matter how much it pays. My advice is to give notice explain why you are leaving and check the classified sections of this paper. You have no right to ask the boss to turn off the radio, change stations or wear earphones.
