this morning #1241.
this morning, after managing to stay silent for quite some time, people around the office were speaking up again. louder this time. eventually, they may get to me. browbeat me into joining the disgruntled chorus. “we should be a united front,” they’ll say. if i get my way, i’m staying as far away from the situation at hand for as long as i possibly can. they need to just let me do my work, let me keep my head down while they worry about filing complaints. as soon as they drag me into their mess, i’ll end up on the bosses’ radar. i don’t need that sort of scrutiny. i’ve got a damn sweet system going, one that i’ve fine-tuned over many years. if anyone starts paying attention to what i really do, i’m screwed.
