There are days when I feel like furniture. Maybe an overstuffed chair or a love seat; comfy, warm and a little worn out.
Do you ever feel like that? You're necessary, you do a good job; whether it's at home or at work but people just don't seem to notice you there.
Of course they notice you when you don't perform as they expect, perhaps you pop a spring or your stuffing starts falling out from overuse. But instead of getting tender loving care - new upholstery or perhaps a couple of throw pillows to cover over the worn spots, you're just hauled down to the curb to be picked up with the rest of the trash and replaced with a leather recliner.
OK, this was all written tongue-in-cheek but I'm feeling over-worked, under paid, and under appreciated today and I needed to throw a pity party.
