Lunatic Bloody hell, I&039;ve seen so like that That was disgusting That made me feel sick Christ, he came out of nowhere and she didn&039;t stand a chance, poor old girl He&039;s in the middle of the cro He&039;s outnuht This place is full of crazy people Fortunately for that woman it&039;s also full of police officers There are two of the Three ing him away

Da to be late for work again but I can&039;t move I&039;ht all around o backwards or forwards I&039;ll have to wait until they start to shift, however long that takes There areto clear the scene It&039;s pathetic really, you&039;d think they&039;d show son of trouble on the street and everyone stops to watch the freak show

We&039;re finally starting tobundled towards a police van on the other side of the street He&039;s kicking and screa like a bloody baby Looks like he&039;s lost it co you&039;d think he was the one who&039;d been attacked

I know I&039;m a lazy bastard I know I should try harder but I just can&039;t be bothered I&039;ive a shit I should have run across Millenniuet to the office just now but it was too ot here at just gone quarter past nine I tried to sneak in but it was inevitable that soh, didn&039;t it? My sour-faced, slave-driving, unforgiving bitch of a supervisor She&039;s standing behindme work She thinks I don&039;t know she&039;s there I really can&039;t stand her In fact I can&039;t think of anyone I like less than Tina I&039;m not a violent man - I don&039;t like confrontation and I find the very idea of punching a woman offensive - but there are times here when I&039;d happily smack her in the mouth

&039;You owevoice I push myself back on my chair and slowly turn around to face her I force h all I want to do is spit She stands in front of

&039;Morning, Tina,&039; I reply, trying to stay cal just how much she winds me up, &039;how are you today?&039;

&039;You can either take the tiht and work over,&039; she snaps &039;It&039;s up to you how youthings worse for myself but I can&039;t help it I should just keepbut I can&039;t stand the thought of this vile wo she&039;s in control I know I&039; the situation but I just can&039;t stop

&039;What about yesterday ?&039; I ask I force ain She&039;s not at all happy She shifts her weight froum even harder and faster Her jaw moves in a frantic circularheifer

&039;What about yesterday ?&039; she spits

&039;Well,&039; I explain, trying hard not to sound like I&039; her, &039;if you remember I enty ot here If I&039; to make up your fifteen minutes for today, can I claim back my twenty minutes for yesterday? Or shall we just call it quits and I&039;ll let you off the five minutes?&039;

&039;Don&039;t be stupid You know it doesn&039;t work like that&039;

&039;Maybe it should&039;

Bloody hell, now she&039;s really annoyed Her face is flushed red and I can see the veins on her neck bulging It was a stupid and pointless coht, aren&039;t I? Why should the council have it all their oay? Tina&039;s staring atme feel really uncomfortable I should have just kept my mouth closed I let her win the face-off and I turn back round to sign-on to ain

&039;Either take it off your lunch hour or work over,&039; she says over her shoulder as she walks away &039;I don&039;t care what you do, just make sure you make up the time you owe&039;

And she&039;s off Conversation&039;s over and I don&039;t get any chance to respond or to try and get the last word Bitch

Tinaat her rather than my computer screen She&039;s back at her desk now and Barry Penny, the office e has co to so order than she is She&039;s s to see how far she can crawl up his backside

I can&039;t help thinking about what I&039;ve just seen happen outside Christ, I wish I had that bloke&039;s umbrella I know exactly where I&039;d shove it

Soe This stuff is way beneath me and I don&039;t really have to think about what I&039; I can do my work on autopilot and the time passes quickly It&039;s been like that so far thisJob satisfaction is non-existent but at least the day isn&039;t dragging

I&039;ve been working here for aler) and I&039;ve worked for the council for the last three and a half years In that tih e in their entire careers I keep getting transferred I served time in the pest control, refuse collection and street lampFine Processing office or PFP as the council likes to call it They have an irritating habit of trying to reduce as many department names and job titles down to sets of initials as they can Before I was transferred here I&039;d been told that the PFP was a duround for underperformers and, as soon as I arrived, I realised it was true In most of the places I&039;ve worked I&039;ve either liked the job but not the people or the other way around Here I have probleround for trouble This is where those et wheel-cla warden come to shout and scream and dispute their fines I used to have syhtthat anyone tells ?&039; a voice asks from behind the computer on my left It&039;s Kieran Smyth I like Kieran Like ot brains and he couldlaw at university but took a holiday job here last suot used to having the money and couldn&039;t cope without it He buys an incredible amount of stuff Every day he sees of clothes, books, DVDs and CDs I&039;helse Kieran spendsto his h me and over h Their conversations are as boring as hell and the only thing I have in common with them is that the three of us all ithin the same small section of the same small office What does annoy me, if I&039;et aith not doing veryday Maybe it&039;s because they&039;re friendly with Tina outside work and they go out drinking together Christ, I only have to cough and she&039;s up out of her seat wanting to knohat I&039;
