The Human Doormat

I have always been a keen observer..I take great pleasure in watching the human psyche at work. Whenever I go to malls I wonder at the sea of faces that I come across with and wonder what they are thinking or what made them work where they are now.

During my course of my employment in a retail company..I came across two co-workers who are both married and who are both serving the She-Devil. Yeah, that is such a very apt term to describe the employer we used to work for. In fact, I think the word was invented solely just for her.

Let's call them Fiona and Karen. Hmm nice name for a boutique! Laterrrr..let me make a mental note of that...So going back...Fiona is frail looking girl who practically lives in a posh mall working more than 8 hours a day. She's married to a guy who barely supports her financially. Imagine to my horror when I found out she had to borrow fare money just to get home from total strangers! Now what kind of a husband will let his wife do that right? That pompous arrogant fart of a husband of hers! When she gets home, she washes clothes that are sky high...exists with only two uniforms, and with one eye almost closed due to exhaustion she prepares the clothes of her fat ass husband!!! He, who walks the earth like a demi god (only in her eyes) and she probably worships the ground he walks on...lo and behold...he has the latest mobile phone, spoiled rotten, acts as if he is still single and throws nary a care in the world for his ever faithful, subservient and yes...if you may...pathetic wife. Bad huh? But wait! That's not all...she has to skip meals as well coz she's flat broke. Yup! Overworked, underpaid, and unfed. Perfect! Why would she allow herself to be tortured? Doormat!!! Its bad as it is that she has a husband who drives her out of the house on her day-off but she has the she devil for a boss as well!

Karen on the other hand, seems to be in a world of her her own. An incredible tattle tale. She will fry your ass to save hers. Looks incredibly unassuming but don't let your guard down she will not hesitate to blabber without batting an eyelash!

If there is anything that Karen is known for, its her blind allegiance to the she devil! Oh yes! She would leave her child who is only a couple of months old to follow the whims of her crazy ass boss! What kind of a mother will do that right? Her husband is "allegedly" doing well so what gives??? She devil screams and calls her all sorts of invectives and yet she dutifully crawls back to her and waits for her salary which is merely a pittance as compared to the amount of money that she devil lavishes on her pet pooches!

Amazing isn't it? Another doormat in the making!
