They're ... TRYING IT ...
They're ... " Playing TRICKS " ... !!!
  
They're Doing Things ...
To Make Me ... QUIT ... !!!
  
"Your role will change,
we'll re-arrange,
your work schedule,
and change your day !"
  
These Are Things ...
The LIARS ... Say ...
  
LIARS ... " In " ...
Todays' Workplace ...
  
Those Who ... LIE ...
For ... "cowardly types" ... !!!
  
Those Who Wear ...
NICE ... Corporate Ties ... !!!
  
Now Things Are ... "TIGHT" ...
Their Plan ... Takes FLIGHT .......................
  
"Lets get rid of  
some troublesome guys !
What we need are
YES MEN types,
and of course,  
let's have more whites !
Let's remove, those dark skin types !
Clever ones, who've got some fight !
Turn the screws, let colleagues loose,
even let some give abuse !"
  
They Should REALLY ...
Be MORE.......................... "shrewd" .............
Before They're ON ... YES ...
  
Channel Four NEWS ... !!!!!!
  
cos' My ... " Patience " ...
Has ... RUN OUT.
  
This Is ... REAL ...
There Is NO DOUBT ... !!!
  
"Managers have gone down south,
because Big Virge, has left a rout !
Punching many, in the mouth !
That young man, sure has some clout !"
  
This Is ALL ...
Because of ... THIS ...  
  
..... "***** Games" ......
and subtle ............... " Tricks " ...
Just To Put Me ... "In A Fix" ...  
  
"Virgil, you'll start at 8.30 !"
  
"WHY WHEN I NOW  
START AT 10 !"
  
"Come on Virgil,
don't get shirty !"
  
"CHECK My terms of employment !
I think you'll find, that it's been signed ?
Right down there, on the dotted line !"
  
"Well, I can't say,
too much on that ?"
  
"It's cool, I know you
want me out !
Don't try to defend !
My working here, is near an end !"
  
"It's a job i've got to do !"
  
"Yeah OK, you stupid fool !
Those above, are using you,
to do the deed, that they know they can't do !
Push me out, without virtue !
I'll be looking, BELIEVE ME !
Can I have my old CV ?"
  
"Sorry, but we didn't keep,
a copy of your old CV !"
  
"You are kidding me !
You don't hold a copy,
of my CV ?"
  
"The system then,
was pretty bad,
CV's had, strange locations ?"
  
"You should be, locked in prison !
Things like that, have no defence !"
  
"It is NOT, personnel's duty,
to take care of ANYONE's CV !"
  
"Whatever, are you done with me !"
  
"NO Virgil, you're not happy !"
  
"What do you expect,
when you're messing with me !
Hours i've done, have proved loyalty !
You don't give a ****, about things I need !
You people are a really sick breed !
All you do is live for greed,
and to USE, people like me !
Power Trips, and THEIR Money !
YES You fool, can't you see ?
The cash you make, compared to theirs,
Those who have, controlling shares !
Keep on doing, what you do !
One day it, just might be YOU ?
Facing someone, pulling stunts,
who will stress you, just for fun !"
  
"DO WHAT'S RIGHT
Why be SO THICK !
  
Can't You SEE ... ?!?
  
"They're TRYING IT ... "
Rough times back at one of my old jobs, so, not word for word, but essentially, how I felt after having a personnel, " Leaving Interview ", just before leaving ....
