I lie

Most days, this year, I arrive at work at about 5 past 8. I say on my time-sheet I arrive at 8. Gradually, over the days I am ’stealing’ time off my work in 5 minute increments. This could add up to whole days very soon. (Well, I do frequent the movies during my work days on occasion, but I use my flexi-time for that). I’m stealing ‘the man’s’ time. That’s nothing to the time their stealing from me, the wear and tear on my body, mind and soul. The fact that I start this cathartic journal with a comment on how I’m doing wrong to a faceless corporation who could quite happily exist without me is a sad indictment of where I see my place in this world.
