Thai Leslie Knope

“Yellow haired female… likes waffles and news.”
“The bankrupt government of Pawnee has been shut down all summer so it’s been three months of no work, no meetings, no memos, no late nights, nothing. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.” -Leslie Knope


The Sub-District Administrative Office, or Tessaban, where I work is bureaucracy incarnate. It's decentralization and inefficiency nicely packaged in a three-story air-conditioned building. Basically, it's TV's Parks and Recreation. 
Like it's Indiana doppelganger, the Pawnee City Hall, my Tessaban concerns itself primarily with community development- canvassing, event-planning,  focus goups, taks forces and yes, park-building. As the blondest person in the office, I am by default, Leslie Knope. But if I'm Thai Leslie, who's Thai Ron Swanson?
