Working on Saturday Is a Suck.
« on: June 30, 2007, 11:31:03 AM »
Here's a terrible poem about it:

Working on Saturday
By Jihad Jesus

Woe is me
this Saturday morn
i would much rather
be eating corn
istead I labour
like Tony Blair's old party.

Oh to be Tony Blair
and to be called Anthony informally
i doubt he ever gets that
Mr. Blair is probably as informal
as it it ever gets for him
luckily our Saturday dress is
informal too
so i've got on jeans
and topsiders with socks.

Whatcha working on?

I'm at work and what makes it worse is that I've got no work to do so I'm just sitting here writing this terrible poetry.

They run a skeleton crew for a few hours every Saturday in case people need us. There's a rotation and you have to work every 13th Saturday or something like that.
