Paperwork Queen

Part of my learning these days is to fill in the blanks while standing on my head, to figure out the logic behind the forms so I don*t have to learn each piece by rote.  Of course this assumes there was some logic to begin with.  I admit I hear the Red Queen shouting in the background:  Off with her head!

Yesterday I learned

I will never be a paperwork queen

Or princess,

Or probably even

A paperwork vassal.

Alas.

Alack.

The GAF score is meant to be

The DLA divided by two,

Except

Except

Except

The two do not measure the same things.

And

The highest score in the past year

Must not include today*s score.

That

Of course

Is different.

I will never be the paperwork queen.

Of course

The queen sets the rules,

Is never questioned.

Hers is the new logic.

Off with her head

Shouts the Red Queen

The quintessential ruler of all paperwork.

Off with her head.
