Team Work

On today’s episode of the Simpsons learned about the importance of team work. Mr. Burns was very energetic in the morning after he drank his coffee so he decided to have a good old fashioned fire drill. Well it turns out that it took the entire nuclear plant of ten minutes to get out of the building, so Mr. Burns was mad and decided to have a company workshop weekend to build on their team working skills. So they all met up in the mountains and were randomly assigned a partner so that they could climb up this mountain to get to the cabin the quickest because the last team to arrive would get fired. Well all the teams worked pretty good they all managed to work together and make it to the spot where the cabin should have been. The reason the cabin wasn’t there was because Homer and Mr. Burns were on the same team and cheated by riding a motorized sled, when they got inside they caused a number of avalanches which buried the house under tons of snow. This episode is a great episode because it teaches the importance of good team work, and it teaches that cheating is never the answer. The reason I feel that this is such a important topic is because many of my professors keep stressing the importance of team work in and out of school. They constantly remind us that study groups work very good and that even after school you will most likely work in some sort of team at your future career. In the end if you look past all the humor the Simpsons really teach good lessons.
