Well, it's a job...

Not mine, nor is this anything but fiction...


Poem Artwork


Yes he does work for the state,
He does so collectin’ fish bait,
Minnows & little fishy’s & like that,
Eat them he doesn’t cause he says they make him fat…

When into his office he must go,
His boss really does work up a blow,
He screams & shouts, his blood pressure does grow,
My friend waits for the day when his pressure blows like a geyser,
Cause, like old Scrooge, he really is a miser…

He dumps the fish in his bosses lap,
And sneaks a few into the assholes cap,
A better job he’d rather get for certain,
So that with this job he can pull down a permanent curtain…

That's some pretty smelly fiction! I think you got it from the old expression: "Fish or cut bait."

And you have a desire to get back at the boss man… So does almost everyone.

Hah! A sad tale indeed, but he got the "take this job and shove it" attitude at the end!

A tale lived by so many...
with very little hair, I wouldn't want to wear that cap! :)

Thanks,
