        Maybe you stubbed your toe because the local council chose a poor design for the roadside curbs

            Sounds like you have some motor issues, probably stress related. You deserve more vacation days. And shorter working hours, so you aren’t so rushed all the time.

            When the 40 hour workweek was invented, most workers had a wife at home to do chores. You shouldn’t be working 40 hours a week plus chores! When women started working and the workforce doubled, the standard workweek should have been adjusted to 20 hours a week. You probably wouldn’t have stubbed your toe so pathetically if you only worked 20 hours a week and got paid a full wage.

              I was not in a rush for work, nor doing chores! I was enjoying some leisure at the time, and I am a young person with several decades left in me before I’m “all used up” as the late great Utah Phillips once sang.

              But if you can direct me to politicians I can rage against in my current situation, I am somewhat eager (my toe still hurts, otherwise I would be 100% eager)

                Were you in a rush to take advantage of leisure time? With a 20 workweek, you’d have lots more leisure time, and you could afford to be more careful with it

    You might not fuck with politics, but politics will fuck with you.

    Also, adding politics – where it wasn’t – is a sign of stupidity. I don’t make the rules.
