Workplace Poems - Poems about Workplace

I’ve seen much I didn’t tell I was a fellow worker Invisible within the mist But the other romance half That I couldn’t see Was destined with opportunity While the workplace Had those that saw A peck, A touch The silly stuff The other half With residential quarters Was serious stuff With no one to tell A long kiss A touch, In as much When workplace romance Was a fantasy Workplace...

True workplace beauty resides not in grand corner offices Or sleek designer furniture that impresses. Nor is it found in trendy open floor plans, Or state-of-the-art gadgets in employees' hands. It doesn't dwell in fancy lobbies with marble floors, Or in boardrooms behind imposing doors. It's not confined to Silicon Valley's sprawling campuses, Or Wall Street's towering glass fortresses. For workplace beauty knows...

Drove for thirty minutes to Subway Station, Took a train for forty minutes, Got into another for only ten minutes, reached Queen's Park. Mornings are hectic, found a seat beside the window, looked at all the faces around. It was an university-bound train, many young faces, fashionable jeans, wearing T-shirts with interesting quotes - from "...

I am A Night Owl By: Noel N. Villarosa June 4, 2022 Staring long at the laptop My workplace is quiet Active and mentally tip top I am an owl that flies at night Night sorting and engaging that way Was a man deep in his thinking Working with a good employer that will stay Energy peaks naturally in the evening With refreshed curious eyes I cast...

They probably thought the elders would go quietly. Everyone over fifty got a pink slip on the same week. But one was not enough. We also received two emails. And a registered letter, letting us know we were gone. This would be our last month. We were terminated. I attended a union meeting. Exchanged phone numbers with two other seasoned women. I...

Our boss employed a receptionist Whose beauty we could not compare Double D cups woke up the knights As pheromones surged through the air Her chair is usually empty Excepting this handwritten note: "I have just stepped out for the male" Exactly as written I quote...

Quote from Hugh Prather: "Most of the conversations I hear are carried on as if there really were such a thing as an answer and as if the people present were actually in possession of it." Shouldn't we all adopt some sort of "busy" pretext, display fake fronts intended to suggest determined aims are being seriously pursued? Wouldn't everyone believe that we...

I’ve got much pressure when I entered the office On my first day of work it’s really hard to please To bring accord is part of my job depiction Got to do this as part of team’s expectation Colleagues have their own personal differences Should cope so I’ll not be broken into pieces How blessed I am to have such kind...

Workplace harassment is rife, alive and well, Occurring too often in this pseudo company. Derogatory, condescending words roared, inches from your face, Sounding like a battlesque symphony. People in charge making foolish demands, Then usurping workers places, employing visible stealth. Not being productive, effective or profitable, To any of the workers, or for the companies health. Forcing workers to feel...

A Workplace Prayer Written: by Tom Wright 1998 Lord, as we gather at our places of work each day. Let us do our tasks, with others, in one accord we pray. If it be day or dark of night let us be found. At counter, desk, or mundane task or on appointed round. As you forever watch our lives Lord, keep us humble. Forgiving us if because of...

There were meadows free to the far, Clean, green and quiet calm. Pebbles and stones, scattered, As in the blue sky’s stars’ view. On a remote-side grew wild thorns high, Played the bees and b‘flies and I; And the good dog passing by had watched us On his hurried walk From...

It's a celebration of life, It's a celebration of self, An inner spirit and style, expressed thru blazes of color. Daring to be an original, in a gallery of the commonplace....

the worker bees buzz & the management, the authority figures, crunch down the boots on the backs of us all tossing crumbs & wanting better production, faster pace, silence (no talking, only work) & for us all to be company whores dedicated to the cause of profit for the few who sit atop the pyramid of this specific little corporate tyranny--- such is the nature...

certainly it only takes putting the hand on the burner once to figure out how stupid a relationship at the work place can be to figure out how it will effect your coworkers to figure out how it will effect the relationship itself & inevitably, how it will ruin both the work reputation & the relationship at hand, with one clean swoop like...

be on the lookout for those who are curious about your personal affairs at the workplace be on the lookout for those who are always hanging around you & other workers, asking questions about things that they can hardly relate to be on the lookout for those that leave the warehouse floor often only to come strolling back with an authority figure...
