Oh, man. So if they worked at a VA hospital before 1989, should I leave it as Admin? Ech. Like anybody really looks at these!

Emily, could be worse. You could be trying to describe what is now the Department of Health and Human Services, back when it was being transformed from Health, Education, and Welfare.

I'm not really sure what is going on, I'm not particularly sure how to solve a problem like Maria, and I'm not sure that I can quote Evita, if that is even what you guys are doing. Regardless, it's funny.

It *IS* the same way you solve a problem like Maria.
