Unhappy Co-Workers Lament

Well, you went on vacation, which is legal I suppose! I guess you felt you needed rest. From what, God only knows! I know the other girls are missing you. I know they really care. They keep saying "We wish the hell she'd hurry back so she could do her share"! The janitors sure miss you too, they expressed their great elation, the floor has been free of coffee stains since you went on vacation! We toil away, eight hours a day. Our breaks are very few! We have to work our butts off, just because of you! While you've been basking in the sun and strolling sandy shores, We've been working extra hard to keep our jobs, and yours! We hope you got the rest you "needed", but lets make one thing clear. There's no way, in hell, you could ever beat the rest you get right here!
