Faustus sighed as he signed the report he'd just finished and set the parchment aside. He looked at the pile still remaining for him to work through and sighed again and seriously contemplated just burning the lot of it. Except then he get more paperwork to explain why he was lighting fires at his desk and why he'd destroyed Ministry paperwork and he'd still have to do the original work.
He leaned back and slouched down in his seat with a disgruntled expression on his face. He knew it was his own fault. He'd been leaving some of this stuff hanging, thinking he'd do it later. Except 'later' had never arrived and now it was actually due by the end of his shift.
"Tell me again why I decided to become an Auror," he muttered under his breath. "Oh yeah. The excitement and danger, the catching of the bad guys and locking them up. They never mentioned the endless paperwork."
He sighed and slouched down a little further. He'd just take a small break. Just a small one then he'd go back to work.
