I am Jack's inflamed sense of rejection.

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

I am Jack's wasted life.

I am the guy with a boss that's the worst
I am sick and fricking tired of all things diverse
I am about to say "frick you I quit"
I am telling you that your poem idea is shite
I am not going to win this contest
I am still winning at life though because I took a shite on your desk

I am the stone that the builder refused
I am the visual, the inspiration
That made Lady sing the blues

I am the spark that makes your idea bright
The same spark that lights the dark
So that you can know your left from your right

I am the ballot in your box, the bullet in the gun
The inner glow that lets you know to call your brother son
The story that just begun, the promise of what's to come
And I'mma remain a soldier till the war is won

I hate this kind of team building BS. Why can't companies just let you do your job and go home anymore? I would write my job description in the poem and the first line would be "I am not able to do my work right now because I'm writing pointless poetry."


This exactly. I've always felt that these things take place because of women. Predominately, men want to be left alone so that we can get our job done effectively and efficiently. Women tend to want to be pampered, need to be made happy, need stress relieved, need to be taught how to work together and eliminate the cat fights.
Being that HR is mostly women, they come up with these ridiculous ideas to "improve" the work place.

My previous job was in an office that was mostly women and we would have to do crap like this regularly. There were 3 guys in the office that generally didn't participate because we were overloaded with work and couldn't step away. We were also viewed by management to have bad attitudes for not participating, however we got our jobs done.

What I really can't stand is they expect you to waste your work day doing this crap, yet don't want to extend deadlines on things to make up for the lost time.

I am not working
I am writing some lines
To fulfill your request
And take up some time

But enough about me
Let's talk about you
Besides pointless poetry
What do you do?

Is it really a job?
How much are you paid
To treat grown arse adults
Like they're still in 4th grade?

I truly apologize
If I seem hateful or rude
It's just that I'm not
In the poetry mood

My work is piling up
As I'm writing these words
The phone keeps ringing
This shite's for the birds

Thank God it's Friday
The only good I can find
In wasting my day
and falling behind

So thank you, HR
For the chance to rhyme
To BS a poem
On the company dime.

I guess I should say
Something about me--
I was not hired
To write poetry

I get up everyday
and do my job well
Then I go home
and pretend it's not hell

To work with such morons
Who are paid to think
Of worthless assignments
That cause me to drink.

That's pretty much it.
I've nothing more to say.
Except that you now
Owe me three hours of pay.

OMG! I think I am going to steal this. We have a weekly Manager's meeting with our entire department and I am going to suggest this just to mess with everyone. They will want to kill me. I will be LMAO. The Manager and Team Leads will love it and I will just come here and borrow one of these poems.
