I am...corrupt

Well, I work for the government. And I work at one of the better government authorities, or so I like to think...

Anyway, working for the government what matters the most is that you come sometime from 8 to 8:30 am and leave not before 4 and this is how you are evaluated, and how you are monitored. Let's not forget to mention that if you come in at 8:35, it is as if you did at 9, so automatically, I think "uh, I'll never make it before 8:30, I will just lounge about for a while", and 9 turns to 10 at times.


So what I do is basically forge excuses (because we have to write paper excuses)
Does that make me corrupt? how corrupt will I be if everyone else does it? I mean, it's not just me, it literally everyone.

I am mostly late due to the lack of productivity at work, which is why I hate my job, pretty much.
I feel guilty, but doing it the right way didn't work either, and I do wake up early enough, it's just....meh, you know?

My goal for this week: wake up at 7 and leave the house at 7:30- 7:45 max.

Speaking of blogging your workplace, check this out, I am pretty optimistic about it, because the stories, oh the stories...

I don't think you're corrupt! I work in the legal field and sometimes I feel like what I do isn't the greatest thing either:(

I am always late, always! I have a very rigid morning routine, which I have become so used to. I watch the TV, do my makeup, and take my good old time. You are not corrupt!

I can totally understand where you're coming from, this happened to me in every job that didn't motivate me, so you're not alone. I hope something improves at work for you or that a new and more exciting opportunity comes up soon :)
