It's easier to tell people what they want to hear
than to hurt and maim with the truth
not wanting to deliver the blow and the fear
providing evidence and the inevitable proof
Some people seek it for attention
confirmation they're shunned and abused
just always there, on vacation
as everyone around them, is used
Playing the game passive and angry
flashing eyes that lie, with a smile
all at the same time, pure lazy
a lack of panache and/or of style
It's a no win scenario
day in and all day out
watching them scheme
as always the innocent victim
un-pious and falsely
devout

A co-worker, whose name shall remain unsaid, always needs to go to the bathroom when the nightly paper work needs done for closing.
I, ignored the pleas on the intercom for me to return to the gun bar, as it was time for the usual "bathroom break" from this individual. When I returned, eventually, to find he still had not completed the paperwork, as he chastised me for not coming to relieve him so he could go invisible for the rest of the evening, so he couldn't do the paperwork. The manager made him do the paperwork, this is only a small portion of this story, I hate long stories LOL ;D
Sometimes
there is
justice
