Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That's why I apply for jobs on company time.

Boss made a dollar
I made a dime,
That was a poem.
From a simpler time.

Now boss makes a thousand.
And gives us a cent
While he's got employees.
Who can't pay the rent.

So when boss makes a million.
And the workers make jack.
Then that's when we riot.
And take our lives back.

I love this poem. Definitely saving for later. I dont know what I will do with it other than reread it from time to time, but that is enough for me.

I remember seeing it but couldn’t find the original author. I like it though.

In the US civil service the website used for applying for government jobs (USAjobs) is whitelisted and it's pretty commonplace to see people using it at work, on their work machines.
