I don't know which way is up anymore. I feel like I did when I was a kid and went to the beach the first time. I got knocked down by a wave and tumbled and tumbled, furiously trying to find the surface before I ran out of air.
How much more crap can they throw at me? I'd say I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop but they've dropped enough shoes for a centipede.
Boss leaves
I'm in charge but I'm not in charge
We're moving
To a building with not enough parking
We're moving
During my summer vacation
We're moving
And I'm trying to be a good little soldier but I really want to kick and scream and bite
Everyone's coming to me with their problems
But I can't fix them and I have problems of my own
Despite my repeated attempts to tell them their new idea won't work
They've still gone ahead and started on the project that will fuck up the main thing I've been working on for the last 6 years
It may be prettier but it's not better
It's not as robust
It's not as flexible
It's a lot more expensive
Spend taxpayer dollars on a crappy solution
When you could spend a fraction of that improving the current product
Try to get this thing out in a ridiculously short time frame
To make the incumbent governor look good
Lose weight, you fat fuck!
That's the only thing that'll make you look good
Rearrange and scramble everyone around
All in an effort to avoid the appearance of nepotism
We met at work
Neither of us got the other one a job
Or a promotion
Or anything
We work well together and we don't bother anyone
But it's OK for the big boss to be unqualified
As long as she's married to the governor's right hand man
Dealing with the failout of everyone's interpersonal relations
Or lack there of
This one doesn't like that one
These two don't like those two
Hell, they all seem OK... ish to me
Why do I have to get caught up in your power struggle?
I keep hoping I'll wake up and it'll all have been a terrible nightmare.
I wonder if it's ever been this bad.
Have I survived worse in the past?
I can't remember
Can I take it?
Can I suck it up and ride it out?
Or will they create enough of a mess before they leave that I'll be forever fucked up by their bad decisions?
I like my job.
Don't screw it up for me
Don't screw it up for me!
