Managers Poem by Sandra Martyres

In these recessionary days
Managers are looking for ways
To pressurise the employees to deliver
It is almost like they have a viral fever
I want more meat on the bone
He consistently and loudly seems to moan
He is another Manager of a large corporation
Who drives the employees to frustration
Precision and decision-making are not his talents
He can never strike the much-needed balance
Between his management role
And reaching the corporation's business goal
So he just barks and screams hoping to redeem
His own confidence and self-esteem
But alas what does he achieve
Not much even by way of reprieve
The Directors no longer in him believe
And the poor unfortunate will soon be forced to leave
Either to join the ranks of the unemployed
Or find another job where his skills can be deployed
The legacy he leaves behind is a demotivated team
With scant hopes of ever achieving their career dream.
