- The blinds are down, there's a welcomingly mild sun out there. Most people have gone out for lunch. It's peaceful here in the outpost of a gigantic company.
- I suffer from time elapse anxiety syndrome (TEA).
- Do many people suffer from this disease?
- Symptom: feeling that time is slipping by without you getting urgent things done.
- This symptom makes me nervous.
- Until I succumb to the next "what's so important that it really needs to be done in the overall scheme of things" mood.
- Those moods are philosophical and soothing,
- but they don't get anything done.

Thank goodness, I don't have to sit in an office except my own here at home of course. Once I worked for the UN in Manhattan and did sit alone in an office indexing Office of Economic Development Country reports. Ugh! dull work! I read reports in English and French. the one great thing about working for the UN (I was on contract for a year) was that you didn't pay income tax... So that all people would be paid equally, those whose countries charged an income tax would receive a check in the mail equal to the tax taken out of each pay check. Can you imagine that?
ReplyDeleteI am glad I am too laid back to suffer from that disease. LOL
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I feel worrying about not getting things done only encourages not getting them done. Instead, I try to enjoy whatever I am doing at the moment. Works well. :)
Thanks, all 3 of you, for your comments!
ReplyDeleteIn particular, I appreciate their bandwidth.
Oh the intricacies of UN tax policies and having to worry about whether or not to worry about things not getting done :)
