Ticket Agent

I know the Lord says “Do not covet your neighbor and his possessions,” but how does He expect me not too when every blasted day I sit in this blasted booth selling blasted tickets to these blasted rich folk who always complain about how their blasted life is so blasted hard, and how they always need a blasted vacation from it!? It makes me sick when I know that some of them have not only NEVER worked a day in their lives, but also that they had had a fabulous vacation just a week ago! If they want to talk about hard lives, they should ask about mine! I haven’t been on a vacation for twelve years! Every stinkin' day for the past twelve years I’ve sat in this booth selling tickets! It gets so darn monotonous!

Just once I wish I could get away. Just once I wish I had enough money to take a break and forget about this terrible life that somehow managed to become my own. Just ONCE!…Dang rich people…
