With my day is going in such a blur of paperwork and nonsense I thought I would give my two cents, and then ask for change. In my job the idea of bureaucracy is at full swing so you know what that means right? Nothing I do has any real purpose or meaning. It can be very dis-heartening at times but I see the world through different beer goggles than most. I put the paper in the out box from the in box. I reply to emails, print reports, and type my life away in front of this screen of death. Trying to justify our lives by our paychecks and squeak by without the boss seeing you playing on your blog when he thinks you are hard(ly) working. But lucky for me not only can I think outside the box I can also use the box to make a fort and keep out the evil monsters.
But there are times when I have to become the monster that I am always hiding from. To be a boss we have to do things and say things we really do not want to. And that is when the man you see over there has to come out and play. He is the mask I put on when I have to play hard ball. He is not one of my favorite personalities that live with me but he comes in handy at times. Like when you get a bad waiter in a restaurant, someone is rude to you at the store or when you have to "be the boss". Because ppl do things that boggle my mind and you just want to cry and shake your head. We all know what has to be done to keep the wheels running so why are some ppl doing the opposite? Is it rebellion agaist the system, a show of their authority or just a way of saying "Please fire me, I need a long vacation"? I don't know but I keep coming across these people and each time I am lost for words to what is truely going on in their attics.
I never look down on ppl that are working no matter how demeaning the job , it is still a job and should be done right. The world needs the little pee ones as much as we need the big CEO's . Well, I think we need less ceo's and more pee ons. Its the pee ons we rely on to get things fixed and cleaned. When was the last time you saw a ceo taking out garbage or vacuuming LOL!
