A really beautiful story Paul. A little gem. Wise and worthy. There is great humanity in you mate. Much like Sisyphus who as you suggest in this tale was challenging the Authority of the Gods by his disrespect. Today we would see this as very healthy disrespect for the neoliberal regimes that exist in our world. Its just a pity Sisyphus wasn't a nicer fella although his alleged (Propaganda?) acts in life seem pretty standard for the time. :)
