It seems like every morning when you get to work and try to
be nice by asking, “How are you
doing?” someone just has to reply with, “Just living the dream.”
I
hate that.
I
want to yell at them, “This is no dream, this is work, Wake Up!” but I have been
told that’s not really acceptable behavior in the workplace. So now it seems like the safest thing
to do is just try and avoid those people.
The truth is those people just don’t want to wake up: they want to have a nice dream.
There
is one tiny detail that bothers me.
I just don’t see any difference between those “sleeping living” and the
“living dead.” Think about it,
from a distance they both appear lifeless. They both move through the day so unresponsive to their
surroundings you might think their brains were on automatic, just going through
the moves as it were.
Of
course there is one difference between the two types. Get in the way of one of the living dead and he will eat
your brains. Get in the way of one
of the sleeping living and his complete apathy toward life will suck
the soul right out of you. Go
ahead, tell me you don’t work with at least one person like that.
Worried about the zombie apocalypse coming? Don’t bother, it’s already here.
One final note for this time. Everyone should go check out the trailer for a film set to be released August 31 in the UK. The film is called, "Cockneys vs. Zombies." It looks like it would be great fun to see and I hope it is released in the U.S. soon.
Here is the YouTube link:
Enjoy!
