There's No Need to Fear, Underdog is Here! (a rant)

Bad day at work...been having more and
more of those lately...AARRRGGGGHHHHH!

There's no need to fear
Underdog is here

                        Watch her work for little pay
                   Someone not show?  Sure, she'll stay
                          She can run it, by herself
                   Cashier, sweep, and stock the shelf
                     Check the truck and run the line
                     Check the temps, she's doin' fine                

                                                           There's no need to fear 
                                                                     Underdog is here

                       No time for a break for lunch
                    Pressure's on, no "thanks a bunch"
                 Where's the raise?  She don't need one
                      Social life?  She don't have none
                          Benefits would be a perk
                   Watch her stress out as she works

There's no need to fear
Underdog is here


                                          Is wanting better too damn much????

It is such a shame that at this time of our evolution and in countries such as ours these working conditions still exist en masse. Thank you for sharing this important reminder and lesson, Karla. Love, peace and strength to you. Regis

Yes, our boss IS an idiot and needs his head examined! Such a shame you are treated so shabbily; I would report him, that is what I would do! You shouldn't HAVE to put up with his S***!

I hear ya; been there FOUR years and making JUST above minimum wage! NOT FAIR!

Great rant; keep on rantin', baby! I'll listen and keep you in prayer; you NEED 'em!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :(
