Professional Suicide


I heard this today. What I’m wondering is how many times do they have to do it? What size their repertoire? Their CV? Once on a railway track; a couple of leaps from tall buildings; a few bullets to the brain? Are these people blessed or cursed by God?

No. They are simply confused people with confused diction. What they really mean here is that they are in a dead-end job. With no prospects and possibly a badly paid pension. So the option here is to change job, but maybe they suffer from fear of quitting and then losing their ability to buy lottery tickets every Wednesday. Maybe they fear if they do get promoted they will be useless at the job (aka Peter – we know who you are.)

Whatever the case – suicide is probably not the answer.
