This is why if given the opportunity I sit where I am clearly not supposed to sit (usually a chair instead of the couch). Or I move around.

Unfortunately these are not options with DBC's office.

I love Lawrence of Arabia. Though it's long.

ETA: if I've learned anything in life it's that degrees have nothing to do with intelligence or skill. They just have to do with status. Think of all the college dropouts that have seriously influenced the world - Jobs, Gates, and so on. And so if someone insists their degree gives them more importance - I would be very wary.
