Occasional Digest - a story for you

A MAN is being unfairly expected to do the job he is paid to do, it has emerged.

Edwin, not his real name, an administrator at a small Australian bank, has been subjected to a campaign of harassment by colleagues and customers demanding he do things in his job description.

He said: “When you’re an administrator, people think they can hassle you with any old shit to do with admin.

“Yesterday my boss Neil, not his real name, told me to order some Post-It notes, so I said ‘D’you want me to wipe your arse while I’m at it, mein Fuhrer?’ I think that did the trick because she looked really confused.

“Then someone rang up asking if we did pizza leaflets when I was at a particularly important plot juncture in my latest work of fan fiction, Picard’s Dilemma.”

Edwin said he would not rule out legal action against his employers if tasks such as answering his phone and filing invoices continued to mar his texting and sandwich-eating.

Office manager Own, not his real name,  said: “Maybe the miserable bastard would be better suited to working as a coach driver for school trips, or for the customer service department of any major internet provider.”
