Model Prisoner

Got this from a friend from my former work... I think she's jealous.

Work vs. Prison
Just in case you ever got the two mixed up. This should make things a bit clearer ...
IN PRISON...you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell.
AT WORK... you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 cubicle.
IN PRISON... you get three meals a day.
AT WORK... you only get a break for one meal and you pay for it.
IN PRISON... you get time off for good behavior.
AT WORK... you get more work for good behavior.
IN PRISON... the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
AT WORK... you must carry around a security card and open all the doors for yourself.
IN PRISON... you can watch TV and play games.
AT WORK... you get fired for watching TV and playing games.
IN PRISON... you get your own toilet.
AT WORK... you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat.
IN PRISON... they allow your family and friends to visit.
AT WORK... you can't even speak to your family.
IN PRISON... the taxpayers pay all expenses with no work required.
AT WORK... you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.
IN PRISON... you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out.
AT WORK... you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.
IN PRISON... you must deal with sadistic wardens.
AT WORK... they are called managers.

This is great! So glad the corporate world left me in 1998 (i.e. I got fired). Haven't had to wear a tie in ages!

BTW, HH, I have a request -- that you might turn on your site feed? I'm on Bloglines, which alerts me to when my faves post. I always miss you (and dreama) because you're feed's not on -- and I hate missing them!

Just a request, if not, that's cool too. :)

Now, on to IKEA for lunch!
