My MBA?
Why do people say “my MBA”? I hear it all the time:
I’m starting on my MBA this fall…
After I get my MBA, I’m moving to [fill in your dream city of choice]…
What is it about an MBA that makes people feel so possessive? I guess, once I’ve done the work, it is mine. I don’t know – it eats up about 20 hours of my time a week. I feel more like my MBA owns me! There’s a lot of things in life that we think we own – but they really own us.
