Psychedella

Are any of you familiar with the film Barbarella? Without a doubt one of the greatest movies ever made, yes. But I refer particularly to the scene in which Barbarella (psychedella) is attacked and bitten by evil 10 inch high dolls.

That is the closest I can get to describing what it's like working here. It's like jumping into that scene every time and I'm Barbarella (psychedella) and all the bitchy, sad old women are the dolls - bitching, biting, sniping and picking at every little thing that everyone does.

That's not to say I don't like working here sometimes, it's just I'm completely bemused by these women. You'd expect it from younger girls but middle-aged woman! Puh-lease. What happened to the cat's bowel movements and Woman's Weekly?

It is my experience that the sugar and spice and everything nice that little girls are supposedly made of definitely has a best before date that is typically somewhere around middle age. I've nothing against any individual middle aged woman, but there is typically nothing more crude or nasty than a gaggle of older womenfolk. Some kind of swarm mentality or something that I'm unaware of.
