You know, I don't ask for much.

I just walked through the cold wet rain to the bank and the post office, because those errands needed to be run. I'm not complaining.

I get talked down to by certain parishioners because nobody thinks to inform me of things that I really need to know, but I don't know that I need to know them so I don't think to ask, and then I look dumb because I can't do my job properly due to ignorance. I'm not complaining.

The day care kids are noisy and the teachers continually forget to close the office doors. I'm not complaining.

I'm only here six hours a day, so I'm not entitled to an actual "lunch break," I guess, and I eat at my desk so I can continue working while I ingest. I'm not complaining.

But is it so much to ask that I be left alone for fifteen minutes, with no phone calls or office visitors, so that I can eat my lunch while it's still hot?

Here's a suggestion: "Well, I'll be happy to help you, but if I pass out from hunger that will delay your request somewhat."

I have a feeling I'd be in a buttload of trouble if I tried that.

OH, to be sure. Snarky may be fun, but not very productive. ^_^
