Rats!!! A real Big ‘un

Animal Chat observations. Also applicable to the real world at large.
(Disclaimer I have nothing against rats. Serious. )


Rats are all over the place and they are really making their presence felt whether in subtle or obvious ways. Sneaky and devious with a cunning understanding of procedures and the way a system works. Working from the dregs scheming and observing for weak points to strike, they make good conspirators yet dangerous as they seem supportive of change yet resistant to the every minute changes they wish to make. As long as they see it as not with them, plans are scuttled and swept away without it seeing the light of day. Nothing is sacred to them, not experience, age nor standing. They will remake it as they wish to whether it means stepping over others and leaving them to whither behind them. They are merely stepping stones no more than that. A path trodden by them on others without a care but their own.

Rats are just that. Rats. Eagar to move up they’ll willingly sell others for a pittance as long as they think it gives them an edge and does not put them in a disadvantageous position. If there’s a molehill, a mountain will be raised just to show that they can even if it serves no purpose other than as a declaration of war.

There are other rats which know nothing outside the confines of their own comfort world. These rats are a bane as they have authority yet no knowledge, want something done yet no wish to get down to it and see it through, choosing instead to delegate to someone else who has a better knowledge and then criticizing them on things that can have no improvements to them. Nothing can be done if the explanation flies by past their unwilling closed minds.

Perhaps in future, there would be better places or people but not where I am at the moment.
