A day in our lives ....


A little dialogue ....

It starts with A finding the electric kettle full of cold water ... 
A needs to boil a little water to make a drink. 
A looks for the Matriach, S, tells her the problemo....
S follows as A goes back to the kitchen and finds V,
the Patriach Supremo pottering amongst the pots.
V pipes in... "You want to boil some water?"
Sees S trotting along and says, "You had to bring heavy Management 
in...(for this)?" as he proceeds to pour the water into flasks.
A gives a stiffled grunt, "haennkk..."
S laughs, "Yes that is apt terminology. You have to learn how to 
handle little things. One day Heavy Management will no longer be 
here; then you don't want to flounder..." 
V butts in, "So when will you be retiring?"
S retorts, "I have already left! Now I am just ... sitting out? 
counting time? what's the phrase? What do prisoners do.. 
to do with time?..."
A says, exasperated..."doing time..." Ammmaae...
S laughs out loud, "Yes I am doing time!" and thinks ..."Doing time in 
purgatory!" Actually what S meant was ... "biding my time.... "
