Gopher

If this is a gopher

And this one too

I don't understand why my boss wants me to be as busy as a bee, run around like a chicken who's head been cut off and do every task that pops up in his mind or what my collegues can think of.

The advertisement in the paper nor during the interview it was mentioned this company needed a gopher. I can do more, better, am higher educated than the rest but don't even have my own desk. No hole in the ground to have a moment of rest, no shield to protect me.

I tried, did my stinking best but decided to sack them all. I don't need them to chase me around, drive me crazy one day after the next.

A short knock at the door ended it all. "Sorry boss but I leave this isn't the right place for me to be."
Bossy boss looked up at me surprised and I turned around to close the door. While leaving the building I realized I 'm better off alone and can do the same job at home my way.
