20 Reasons Why You Should Hire Vignesh

Vignesh D. is your ideal candidate, he'll make a great resident for your program! Also, you'd be getting him out of my hair, which would be FANTASTIC. Also, I'm going to be a poor musician, and if you don't give him a job, who will support my endeavors?

1. Luke, I am your father.

(or he's a burner who volunteers medical services in Black Rock City)

2. He rode a bike across the nation raising funds for children with disabilities.

While I was home watching reruns of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Seriously, the only person you should refuse him for is Mahatma Gandhi. And Chuck Norris-- I won't blame you for wanting Chuck Norris. Maybe Dr. Cox and Dr. House, too...alright, there are people you could turn him down for, but do you really want to? I mean, look at that smile...

3. He roots for the underdog.

He's not holding a brick, he's holding a Nokia phone. Yup, they still exist. Nope, this isn't a black and white photo taken a century ago that was retouched with photoshop.

4. Srsly. Underdog. Loyal, he is.

Jacksonville Jaguars? Why are they even still a team? Groan...

5. This is what he's always wanted to do.

Doctor, engineer, or a failure to an Indian family....yeah, I get that. He wasn't forced into this. For some unfathomable reason, he chooses to dedicate every waking moment to this profession.

6. He'll take cool pictures of you

like this one. Imagine this on your Facebook profile!

7. I'll give you a lot of embarrassing photos of him

You can taunt him so much easier! I'll be the Dan to your Dr. Cox, man. (Number 6, by the way.)

8. He has his own country

He was Homecoming king, I think that means he has his own minions? No? Oh. I never actually went to classes enough as an undergrad to know how any of these things work.

9. I did mention I'd help you embaress him, right?

Totally not kidding about that.

10. He's a genuinely good guy.

Really, he's so nice I worry about him. He has sunshine leaking from every pore. It might even will get annoying. Instead of coming and visiting me in Europe, he chose to go volunteer. Who does that? He does.

11. He is a part-time Blue Man Group member.

12. I'm not so sure what's happening here...

but it looks cute. Imagine all the photo ops you could get!

13. I don't need more competition, alright?

Listen, being a musician isn't easy, and if you don't let him in, god knows what he'll try next. Just...don't.

14. Although...

It might help that he's very cultured. We grew up in Madras.

15. For some unfathomable reason, children love him

Imagine all the $$ you'll save on hiring a babysitter...

16. Seriously, it would be so easy to make fun of him with me on your side.

You know how I took this picture? He was standing on a stool.

17. I'm hoping that I won't have to digest messages like this

You know, since he'll be far away with other resident friends.

18. If this picture of us 23 years ago doesn't melt your heart...

I don't know what will. (He may have proceeded to step on me after the picture, I'm not sure, I've been told things but I don't exactly remember).

19. He is also a model scout for Ralph Lauren

See that stare from the one in the striped tee in the middle? That's right, Mr. Smoldering Eyes over there is going to be making some bank as the model he was born to be, thanks to Dr. Viggy Izalea.

20. And finally, you'll get to say Aziz Ansari works for you.
