skip the multi-verse fantastic

I often wonder if there is a real possibility that the boundaries between universes can be so thin that some individuals can slip through them frequently; and that those differences are so subtle that you can be elsewhere/when for a long time before you realize that you are inthe wrong place. Take for instance a situation at work.

We have always pressed event linens on the first shift in laundry with the understanding that the laundry gets done as it gets done. And for the better part of the year I have been the one to do the linens because the other two hate to do it. We were getting them done up to four days in advance and they were re-wrinkling so we quit getting that far ahead. The larger point I am making is that it has always been a first shift thing. And as a result its been me. And I have not failed to get the linens done in a timely manner. In fact the only time they were not done for the set up crew is on my days off when the other two decided they didn't have to do it. It happened twice and one of those times the frnt desk had to do it.

Suddenly, as event season has gone into full swing it is being left for second shift to do. And this after hearing snide commments about how I need to do my fair share. Huh? I've been left with twenty linens, 70 rooms of laundry and public areas to clean then been laughed at when I've asked for help. I wonder how it is that no one who has seen me toiling can remember that.

The only explaination is that there must be a thin veil. If I am not slipping through the multiverse at random points in this time stream then there is a problem with the people that I work with; namely that the two I work with have managed to convince the others we work with that what they see is not true. But how can that be? Each person who comes in that laundry room is a reasoning, thinking person who does not seem to be easily swayed. And that would mean that the people I work with who had professed to be my friends were lying.

I prefer to believe that I am in a part of the multiverse where things are different. But I know the science for that is bad and that can not be the truth. Fantasy hurts a little less. Damn the travails of being a geek!!!
