I fear, my friends, that I have made a terrible mistake.
As a 5th Degree Past(Virtual) Master and Mark Master Mason I assumed I was at least in middle management.
I have discovered, however, that LLM is a 32nd degree. Accordingly, if he is a 32nd and still considered an LLM, then surely I am a BLLM (below low
level mason).
Due to our intricate and subtly layered hierarchy it becomes confusing at times who reports to whom. This becomes especially apparent at our AGL
(Above Grand Lodge) meetings when you are in line for the bathroom and the PATSAADDGWM (Past Above Top Secret Assistant Area District Deputy Grand
Worshipful Master) tries to cut in line.
I mean, technically he is a 3rd degree but he is also a 32nd and a 33rd, but only on opposing Wednesdays when hot lunch is served at the daylight
lodge.
If you can detect the stress in my voice I apologize. It's just that masonry is so diffiCULT and complex at times I forget where to genuflect and
where to condescend.
Therefore, please redact any references I might have made to myself as a MMM (middle Management Mason) and change it to UTPM (UNDER the porch
mason).
Fraternally yours,
Rutherford Beaverfart, 69th Deg. Knight of the Woeful Countenance and Lodge Janitor.
