pinocchio

OK so we alllllllll grew up
with the pinocchio story
abt how lying gets us NOWHERE.

but today-
at the baystreet job interview,
i lied abt nt gg back
and it got me a job!
yes pple, they employed me!!!
buttttt like every villain's telltale,
it gets them into a BIGGER mess.
and relevance to myself?

nw i cant quit in time to leave melb
i have SHIFTS over xmas AND new year.
i have a pay only DUE after those days.
so what did i bring upon myself?
NOTHING but mess.
so learn by example pple (for those soon to work)
never lie to your bosses. (or soon to be boss)
and seriously,
if you cant get a job, go on contented that you tried at least,
and not dealt with your unwillingness to accept it by lying
to try to prove a point.
cos' the only thing youre gonna get- is more shit than the one youre already stepping in.):
