Rumors of war

Funny thing happened today, it could have serious
ramifications, but I just don't give a shit. I was told
that there's a rumor going around that I have a problem
with management, I do, but so what! I don't think there's
anyone in the shop that is currently happy with the
current state of affairs, that being neither here nor
there, if I wanted to address the issue with management; I
would. I'm searching for an opportunity to bring my
problems to light without engaging in an emotional dispute.
I hope to get back here later, not very likely, got to
finish the typed rough draft of the research paper.
Si vi pacem, para bellum. If you wish for peace, prepare
for war!
Today, I spied my manager staring at me, I turned around
and grinned at him; I was laughing inwardly because he
seems too cowardly to approach me with his concerns
regarding my employment. I do believe that they're
searching for provocation to release me, too many people
seem to be interested in what I say, can't ignore the
logic.
It isn't in management's best interest to have disgruntled
employees around, even if they're the cause of the
disgruntlement. I'm not worried about losing this job, one
door closes, another door opens! My Father has always
provided me with what I need, nothing else matters. I
won't give the company a reason to release me, but I won't
kiss any ass either.
In the immortal words of that country singer (what's his
name), "Take this job and shove it". Management knows that
I keep a journal and often I'll use a micro-cassette
recorder to make entries, guilt keeps them from exercising
their prerogative. It's one thing to want me gone, another
thing to get rid of me. I earned my job and I work hard
every day, I'm not going to make it easy for them. No, I'm
not happy here, but I'll leave when I'm ready to leave;
not the other way around.
I'm going to skate with Christine, tomorrow night, maybe
we'll go out for coffee afterwards. Yes, I'm breaking a
long-standing rule, but where else would I meet anyone; I
don't go out alone. She's very quiet and when she smiles
her whole face lights up! I'm going to enjoy myself.
We'll see what happens at work tomorrow, I need to be on
time from now on, that would be the only grounds they'd
have for dismissal, I must leave the house (no later than)
6:30am. I can manage that, I won't be dismissed!
Got to get back to my research paper. Oh, two boys @ the
rink, have attached themselves to me. Brian and Danny,
Danny was so talkative tonight and he got me smiling so
hard my jaws hurt. Being touched by them makes me so happy!
C'y'all!
