here’s a thing

did ya ever notice
how when you’ve spent
a couple of months
beatin feet
to make sure everything
gets done
and then you finally get thru
to the other side
it’s a let down?

so I’ve spent the better part of
a month n some
working hellish hours
due to the transition
in our office
so much so that the last count
was 2 weeks “lieu” time

the boss
in her infinite wisdom
has decided
that we’ll just keep this
between us

which begs some questions:
1. in this country…overtime is
time and a half…
do you suppose she’ll honor that?
not likely
2. in this country the employee
gets to chose if the want their
OT in lieu time or $…
do you suppose she’ll let me choose?
3. how the hell is she ever gonna
make a serious argument
for us needing another body
in our office if she doesn’t
officially track our OT?

hmmmmmmmm?
I’m tired of fighting
for my basic rights
with this woman
I shouldn’t have to
and if I go to ER
she uses that as a bullet too
accusing me of not being a “team player”

yesterday she suggested that I’m
an adrenaline junkie….
uhhhhhhm
“hello pot? meet kettle!”

it’s the definitive
double edges sword
damned if ya do
damned if ya don’t
