Two bone weary public servants were working their little hearts and souls out (??). Their department was just too busy for staff to be able take flex. But there had to be a way ...
One of the two public servants suddenly lifted her head. "I know how to get some time off work," the girl whispered.
"How?" hissed the blonde at the next workstation.
Instead of answering, the girl quickly looked around. No sign of her Director. she jumped up on her desk, kicked out a couple of ceiling tiles and hoisted herself up. "Look!" she hissed, then swinging her legs over a metal pipe, hung upside down.
Within seconds, the Director emerged from the Branch Head's office at the far end of the floor. He saw the worker hanging from the ceiling, and asked her what on earth she thought she was doing.
"I'm a light bulb," answered the public servant.
"I think you need some time off," barked the Director. "Get out of here

that's an order - and I don't want to see you back here for at least another two days! You understand me?"
"Yes sir," the public servant answered meekly, then jumped down, logged off her computer and left.
The blonde was hot on his heels.
"Where do you think you're going?" the boss asked.
"Home," she said lightly. "I can't work in the dark."
