by Susan Kimmel
Happy November! Let's start the month off with a little word association game!
Don't think about it ... just answer with the first thing that comes to your mind when I say:
"Your School's Business Office .........."
Did you think...
- Mysterious Budget Formulas – are they some sort of Excel masterminds over there?
- The Mythical Receipt Unicorn – what do they do with all those receipts?
- The Budgetary Wizard – do you love how they can wave a wand and work their magic to get you what you need from a seemingly depleted budget?
- Coffee, Coffee, and more Coffee – 'nuff said!
