Work Place Blues

I have so much to do I can't get it all done To many balls in the air I can't juggle every one I am sure you've heard of me The guy who dropped the ball Now here I am Knocking my head against the wall They say that nice guys Always finish last It seems that's the case I'm getting there fast Just one more job Added to my plate Now I'm in trouble You're out on your date In the end I'm fired I think that's okay Your turn to work My time to play Disclaimer: don't send donations, still happily working here in Kelowna. I am however considering setting up a holiday fund if you wish to contribute to that:))

maybe you should just through the balls at your boss and tell the ape to earn it's salary - if you are your own boss, well, get your priorities in better order - a nice poem of woe Richard - J.A.B. %
