    Now that I work in some government related field I seem to have developed a new fear for the government.

    If everything goes right then you probably shouldn’t worry too much but forget one little thing or make a small mistake for whatever reason and you can be fucked with sanctions, fines or other forms of punishment. I have seen cases in which the government approves something only to come back on it a year later. People have to pay back thousands of euro’s then, effectively ruining their lives for years to come. And all the government says is ‘tough luck’.

    Like, you can forget a single cross somewhere on a form with a thousand crosses and all of a sudden you are seen as a hardcore criminal and nobody will listen to your explanation.
