Putting on a show

    

All week long there has been inspectors, from the state, at my job have. So people have running around acting like they are the perfect little workers, that they are not, and making other workers think they haven't been doing their jobs right. The tension in the house was so thick it made it stressful to be at work. On one side you have the state people watching you and on the other you have your boss in your ear saying ''do this, do that, you’re not supposed to do this, and you’re supposed to do that’ .Like they were making it up as they went, because they were just as lost as we were.

  To me it seemed like was some type of great production that was about to be broadcasted to the world. You had the clean-up crew/workers (me), the actors/managers, the director/the boss, and the inspectors were the audience / judges. To me it was funny to watch the actors and bosses run round trying to correct things at the last minute. That the workers had been complaining about for months but were just ignored, till now. Then they get upset with us because we didn't know answers to the questions the state was asking us because we weren't trained on the things that they wanted to know.

So the show the show is over, the curtains are down, and the actors and directors are taking their bawls, the audience is cheering and clapping. And where are we, the cleanup crew?  In the back getting ready for the next show. With no time to breath, no ‘’thanks you did a great job’’ or even a, ’’thanks for saving my ass”. Just ,’’see you next time’’ and ‘’be on time’’.
