Ray Was A Pretty Terrible Ghostbuster

[Seil]

Think about it. What'd Ray do? He doomed humanity to be destroyed by a giant Sumerian marshmallow in the first flick, and then became hypnotized and subsequently possessed by Vigo, scourge of Carpathia.

Now I'm not saying they don't have hard jobs. Hell, a baker doesn't have to prove his bread exists, and I'd wager most scientists can't come up with a half decent Ghost Containment Unit to save their lives. Heck, it's not even steady work! After they defeated Gozer, the ingrateful New Yorkians hired them to appear at the birthday parties of their indifferent kids.

But what did Ray do? Egon handled most of the heavy intellectual lifting, Zeddimore focused on actual busting, and Venkman handled the press and the authorities. Ray, well, he admitted to sleeping with emo slime he found in the sewers.

Sure he was a scientist and busted things just fine, but Zeddimore came in off the street and he's not having sex with slime.
