Quote from Dick in Paranoid Dick
Mary: The chancellor. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear he was avoiding me. Dick: Why would he be avoiding you? You're the Dean. And you've done an exemplary job. Mary: You think so? Dick: Yes. You've done nothing offensive. You haven't caused a single ripple on the pond. No controversial proposals, no expensive cutting-edge teachers, no "innovative" ideas to shake up the status quo. You've been almost invisible. Mary: Well, I did institute those slanted parking spaces in the faculty lot. Dick: Yeah, and no one cared. Oh, come on, Mary, you've lasted six months in a job that none thought you could keep and even fewer thought you deserved.
