Routine

it's the same questions every week. Tuesdays, i ask: what are we having this Saturday? and they give me a ratatatat of rubbish to feed the audience, so the money they earn out of it, we feed to the station we're slaving for, and we get back a measly dot out of they whole for pathetic sustenance. Tuesday afternoons i ask the DJ: can you do the V.O. for this, pls? Wednesdays, i ask: who 's hosting this Saturday? and who's singing (or dancing to) what song and which parts of it? Thursdays, i ask: are there any changes ? any more VTRs to do? and if there's anymore i go back to the Tuesday-afternoon question. On any or all of these days, most of the hours i spend waiting for my turn at facilities, and i doze off too far into a book until they think i'm lazy. Fridays, i go up a flight of stairs, have a little chat with the photocopier machine and write on newsprint kindergarten-large letters for hosts to read from afar and fool the rest of the world, feeding them the same miscontsrued perceptions they've been fed since Magellan.
