Poem
Mr CEO, How Much Do You Make Going around in Whatsapp circle is a viral message... About a CEO with an inflated ego hoping to burnish his image.... Being a CEO knowing his own worth and full of self importance... He presumes the world has to be in awe of how much he makes... Acting magnanimous, he politely and ever so sweetly asked his dinner mate.... Being a long suffering teacher, how much is it that the teacher makes.... The teacher, she paused in her dinner, and launched a monologue.... About how she teaches her students the virtues of patience... And mathematics and how invaluable it is minus the technological aids... Guiding them to a C+ that feels like achieving a congressional medal of honor... Teaches all the future brains and big wigs of society, CEO's included... Her monologue was cunningly crafted calculated to cut down to size.... All those egoistic CEO's who feel they have arrived at the pinnacle of success... She ended her broadside, asking, How Much Do You Make, Mr CEO?.... Hohoho.... The CEO lives in a different world and goes by a different yardstick.... In his world, it is all money in business, losses and profits.... That's the bottom line, money talks and makes the world goes round.... The comforts of life is his for the asking, given the mega bucks he has to be making.... The teacher in question is obviously one very peeved individual.... Given the comparatively peanut salary everybody knows she has be given.... His resentment has built up for she must have felt or has been reminded once to often... Her salary is peanuts compared to her many successful ex students... What can she do but put on a show of bravado... Just be scathing and craft out a creative answer.... While massaging her long bruised ego over seemingly salary failure... Earning meagre bucks yearly at base level while her CEO ex students soar all over... That she feels ultimately superior is obvious from her concluding query... A challenge to her rival, Just how much you make, Mr CEO... When truth be told, she has merely applied a different yardstick of measurement... To deflect yet another CEO's disdain for yet another teacher who was once his mentor... Hohoho...
