paper trails.

With the amount of paper used and signed, I can pave a pretty long paper trail all the way from my house to Changi.
God forbid that I have a "by the book" supervisor that insists us to write down every transaction and there is something else I find it even more ridiculous, I have to write down the number of times I use the system, as in writing down the number of times I hit refresh to check on a new person. It's like surfing Yahoo news and jotting down the number of times I click a news link.
But of course, I am flexible.
He wants to see a number to feel secure, so I gave him a reasonable number to address his insecurity.

I should not be dealing with numbers, I should be washing test tubes and smuggling home rubber gloves from some laboratory.
