prison vs. work
Published Mar. 20, 2008
Just in case you ever get these two environments mixed up,
This should make things a little bit clearer.
@ PRISON
you spend the majority of your time in a 10X10 cell
@ WORK
you spend the majority of your time in a 6X6 cubicle/office
@ PRISON
you get three meals a day fully paid for
@ WORK
you get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it
@ PRISON
you get time off for good behavior
@ WORK
you get more work for good behavior
@ PRISON
the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you
@ WORK
you must often carry a security card and open all the doors for yourself
@ PRISON
you can watch TV and play games
@ WORK
you could get fired for watching TV and playing games
@ PRISON
you get your own toilet
@ WORK
you have to share the toilet with some people who pee on the seat
@ PRISON
they allow your family and friends to visit
@ WORK
you aren't even supposed to speak to your family
@ PRISON
all expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required
@ WORK
you get to pay all your expenses to go to work, and they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners
@ PRISON
you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out
@ WORK
you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars
@ PRISON
you must deal with sadistic wardens
@ WORK
they are called managers
THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!!!!

Work - You earn a paycheck, buy a TV, and go home and watch whatever you want to, and maybe your wife will let you have the remote and bring you a drink.
Prison - you stand in line in the chow hall with people you don't like, and eat what is usually some pretty awful food.
Work - You cash your paycheck and choose your own food.
Prison - IF you have a couple of dollars, you pay outrageous prices for instant coffee and hope you can find some hot water.
Work - You buy yourself your favorite coffee, and make it just the way you like it - you can put it in a thermos and take it to work with you.
I prefer work, myself. Think about it.

I don't take breaks. For lunch, I eat leftovers in the back room.
If I do take a short break (5-10 mins), I am being watched and just today was told to not do so before a certain time. I am to stay in the basement...no windows, just me.
Now get this, I am required to do work outside of this office and I am required to be in this office because someone might like it if I'm not. Uhm...clone me!
You know what...some people really need to Get A Life. I don't nosey around in others peoples business but they dayum sure do mine in the workplace!
Thanks for letting me vent. Your blog expresses me to the tee today.
