I would think steering clear of all things political at work would be the smartest move. But no. Why are you not on your team's side? Why are you minding your own business? Are you staying out of this to please your enemies? Why are you so selfish?

OMG. The possibilities of interrogation are countless and way out of point. Why do i even care what you think when insecurities and pettiness get the better of you? I just wanna do my thing and go home to my amazing family. Work politics are so unnecessary for the productivity of work. Work politics are the babies of seething JEALOUSY and raging HATRED. Why is nobody listening to John Lennon at all?

I wish i could wash it all away with a swig of a beer. Or a can. Or maybe 2 cans, since we're at it. Do not mistake this action as a coward's way of escapism. After all the shit that i put up with of late, i totally deserve as many cans as i demand! A little alcohol puts me at ease. It takes much effort to refrain from making an innocent remark or speaking my mind, which may in turn spark WW3. All those clenched jaws and fists and walking away from fights taunted below the belt........ Come on, tell me i deserve the beer.

So why am i staying put in this oh-so-unhealthy environment? I really love doing what i do. I also appreciate the knowledge i acquire from the interaction i have with the people i service. And lastly, THE MONEY.  But when push comes to shove, one is not left with that many choices and reserve energy. I think it might be a wise idea to start thinking about a new environment. I feel the coward creeping out of me already.

Whining ain't good. I should just shut up and fight my way out of the situation, Spartan-style. I wonder what happened to my Spartan spirit and courage? I remember the days when no lashing nor bashing could bring me down........... maybe, just maybe, it's time to don my full metal gear and prepare for glory.
