I am on being smarterning

I know I'm taking a bit of a break, but I wanted to announce that I got my acceptance letter to Mensa yesterday. I am, of course, going to use this to be even more superior and exclusionist than ever. I am also going to ask my company for a raise using something like the following:

"As you might have heard, I recently joined American Mensa. Since this means that I am in the top 2% in terms of intelligence I submit that I should be in the top 2% in yearly income. According to a 2003 census the top 2% earners in America make over $300,000 a year. Since I am not greedy, I will accept this outdated statistic and not ask for more than the minimum. If possible, I would also like this to occur retroactively to cover the amount of time I worked last year.

I realize this will require a very large amount of money and I will be patient in waiting for it."


Think it will work?
