HEALY HALL — With his hopes that someone would have dropped a hint enlightening him to his position’s responsibilities or duties thus far unfilled, Executive Assistant Vice President of Digital Strategies Craig Bannon told the Heckler that it was “way too late” in the year to ask his supervisor what he is supposed to be doing.

Bannon, hired over the summer into the Executive Administration Department of the President’s Office, was initially unclear as to the role he would be playing if hired but assumed his question would be easily clarified during the interview process.

Bannon will occasionally open a spreadsheet and start punching in random numbers.

“When I asked what I would be doing in the Department they kept talking about ‘enhancing our capabilities’ and ‘playing an integral role in our mission,’” said Bannon. “I figured it was only acceptable to ask them to repeat the answer once.”

Since starting work at the end of the summer Bannon reportedly has just kept the Wikipedia page of “Media” open in hopes that all passerbys would assume he knew exactly he was doing.

“Yeah, I sent a campus wide e-mail once but it didn’t really entail any specifics or say anything,” said Bannon. “I don’t think anyone, including my boss, read it. He sent a follow up e-mail which just said ‘keep up the good work.’”

Bannon also told the Heckler he “has no idea” what the hierarchy of his department is like or what they do.

“We have meetings but I haven’t really talked about anything specific,” said Bannon. “Like one week we talked about going green. That was as specific as we’ve gotten thus far.”

On most days Bannon reportedly sits at his desk reading Twitter under the desk.

“Sometimes my boss will poke his head into my office and ask how my projects are going,” said Bannon. “I just usually say ‘great’ and he leaves.”

When reached by phone Bannon’s supervisor told the Heckler that Bannon was doing “a bang-up job, real top notch stuff.”
