I remember watching Leonard Rossiter in The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin and laughing and thinking that is was very funny.
Now I fear that I am almost turning into to him. I now understand what the writer was getting at. All I can think is that I must be just bored of my job.
The worrying thing though is that I have not only started to fantasise a bit like Perrin but when a manager/colleague talks to me I also often have that voice in my head that seams to talk. It usually says stuff like "how banal" or "Ridiculous" and then I will physically answer "Great Idea"
I worry that I will get this the wrong way round one day!! Tell them physically what I am really thinking and say "Great idea" in my head. I believe that this did happen to Perrin in one of the episodes.

It hasn't helped that I have been through a worm-hole and then re-appeared in a universe where everyone is speaking an impenetrable language all of a sudden. It has literally happened overnight.
In this new dystopian world, the workplace no longer has employees that know the job inside out or have great technical ability and can understand the complete process. These people have been 'Let Go'. In there place there are Wellbeing Managers and Diversity Managers because that is what is needed in a manufacturing plant that makes Widgets. It is actually more important for the shop floor workers to be able to find a safe space than be able to find an Engineer to help them on problems with their production machine. (They let the Engineers go as well).

Anyway, I expect I will wake up soon and all will be well again. It was just a bad dream. Ah.
Now relaxing, D.L.
