I Want More Pay Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I want more pay for what it is I do.

'What is it that you do?
Where is your job description?
And with whom do you sit and it reviewed? '

Well...
I have not gotten to that yet.

'Why not? '

I have to first clean out my in-box,
With unnecessary stuff I am expected to finish.
However...
I do keep my work area free of crumbs,
After I make lunch runs for everyone else.
And the boss has no clue how exhausting this can get.

'And for this you want more pay? '

Of course.
Wouldn't you?

'What about doing what you've been hired to do? '

Are you kidding?
And ruin my office reputation?
I want more pay.
I don't want to get fired.
