The 12 Days of an Academic's Week

On the Monday of this week, my office hours brought me:

12 email queries,
11 students knocking,
10 can't write programs,
9 think their grade's low,
8 forms to fill in,
7 slips need signing,
6 boring phone calls,
5 minutes break.
4 need advice,
3 take it,
2 are upset,
and 1 thinks he knows it all.
