besides absolutely despising the morning shift and the speed-driven manager, its been a good morning. I know its odd for me to make a post before noon, but I don't want to let this thought escape into the nothingness of the day.
by the time I was able to sneak away on break, I was joined in my little electronic corner by two middle aged people. They were trying to have as much of a private conversation as they could, but I couldn't help but overhear a large part of it. Much like the topic of many of my recent posts, they were talking about death. I don't know if someone they knew had just died or if they were preparing for a death, but they talked a lot about it. The woman mentioned how this country's attitude towards death is rather harsh. When someone dies, there may only be a day or two that they are allowed to grieve in, then its back to work. In other countries, there is a lot more time allowed for the bereaved. I do not actually know how much of what she said was true, but in my experience, that seemed to be the case.
the gentlemen with her had a few rather interesting and harsh things to say about this establishment. Thanks to them, I'm going to be keeping an eye open around here. . .
that's all for now.
