Prison vs. Work

(Just in case you ever get the two mixed up, this should make things a bit
clearer)


IN PRISON...you spend the majority of your time in a 8x10 cell;
AT WORK...you spend the majority of your time in a 6x8 cubicle.

IN PRISON...you get three meals a day;
AT WORK...you only get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it.

IN PRISON...you get time off for good behavior;
AT WORK...you get rewarded for good behavior with more work.

IN PRISON...the officer locks and unlocks all the doors for you;
AT WORK...you must carry around a security card and open all the doors for
yourself.

IN PRISON...you can watch TV and play games;
AT WORK...you get fired for watching TV and playing games.

IN PRISON...you get your own toilet;
AT WORK...you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat.

IN PRISON...they allow your family and friends to visit;
AT WORK...you can't even speak to your family.

IN PRISON...all expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required;
AT WORK...you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they
deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.

IN PRISON...you spend most of your life looking through bars from inside
wanting to get out;
AT WORK.....you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside
bars.

IN PRISON...you must deal with sadistic wardens;
AT WORK.....they are called managers

Seriously? I thought every office had cubicles these days. It's an
individual workspace enclosed by partial walls. I doubt my current cubicle
is larger than 6' x 6' and has walls about 5' tall. In our new offices they
will be much larger, with much higher walls.

Cheers!

Our office is done in 4' high mostly 6x8's, with shelving on the
inside walls. Becasue I work with machines, they did give me 8' high
walls, to dampen the noise for the others.

They still kvetch.
