Ah, but you know what? This could be the perfect job for me because – there are busy times, and times when I do interesting things, but there also seem to be plenty of times – and I’m talking hours - when there’s nothing to do, and no-one around to give me anything to do, and no possibility of me finding anything to do. Do-be-do – and then it’s twiddle-your-thumbs time.
Or, as it is these days, surf-the-net...
But, of course, I’m supposed to be writing a book – so I have four days off (two in the week; no girlfriend) and then all these hours here to fine tune and fiddle and…it all reminds me of reading of some author who actually did all her writing at work and never really got anything else done, I suppose. But God bless the public sector for that! Lord knows, there’s no better place for getting away with being paid to do absolutely nothing!
