Breaking Free

Flid — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 20:18:18 +0000

My wife looked through a bunch of this site

and said I was coming off as angry looking for something to bite

I’m not really angry, annoyed possibly

with a job and some clients that i have to please

I’m ok though because i’m not stuck here for ever

i’m going to move on and break free but my ties I wont sever

I’ll start my own business and work like a dog

then my recent experience will seem like a fog

I’ll be self sufficient and that’s really the key

because when I earn my own bread is when i’ll be free.Similar Posts:

You Didn’t Do Anything For Us

Flid — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 18:29:19 +0000

My client said “You didn’t do anything for us” and I want this month for free

The client obviously doesnt care what I do and what he does to me

For him, one little project takes forever

because he makes so many revisions it’s such a terror

Just when you think you are all done

He makes new changes and we’re back at stage one

I put in 60 hour weeks to do everything he demands of me

but it doesnt count because he trashes it all and refuses to pay the fee.Similar Posts:

Pound My Boss

Flid — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 19:24:48 +0000

How much is your sanity really worth to you?

If it means selling your soul and your free time too

Money is great and makes the world go round

but in my dreams, it’s my boss i do pound.Similar Posts:

Work for the Devil or Babysit?

Flid — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 19:21:29 +0000

Would you rather work for the devil and have money to pay your bills

or starve each day having a clean conscious and not having to pop pills?

That’s the difference between working for my client or quiting

hey, i might be able to make a living with a job babysitting.Similar Posts:

Irrational Psychopath

Flid — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 19:21:24 +0000

I’m trying to figure out how to speak to an irrational psychopath

without telling him where to go or to jump in the bath

He doesn’t understand how the world goes round

but he blames everything on me because he likes his voice’s sound

Well that’s what a client can do when he pays the bill

and that’s why i’m determined to quit before I make the killSimilar Posts:

This One Goes Out to the Job I loved

Flid — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 20:44:00 +0000

This one goes out to the job I loved

This one goes out to the job I left behind

Now i’m stuck forever doing time

This one goes out to the job I loved

It’s amazing how much meaning something can have by changing a few simple words. Have you ever made the wrong career choice and gotten stuck in a dead end job? Similar Posts:

Making Money

Flid — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 16:07:19 +0000

Making money makes me sick

but really it’s the only thing that makes me tick

I live for my paycheck, my bonus and raise

i’ll pretty much do anything that pays

Truth be told, i’d rather not work

but then i’d be giving up all of my perks

the car, the house, the kids and the wife

cause you can’t hold onto anything without the tool that pays for life

its money, its green and can give you a high

but to tell you the truth it’s just a big lie

you don’t need money to do anything at all

But you can take my word for it or not, it’s your callSimilar Posts:

Summer Vacation

Flid — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 16:05:34 +0000

Who remembers a good old summer vacation

Which now lies to rest in our imagination

Of good times that we had and places we want to go

Way back when, when the good times did flow

Now we are stuck at a desk at our occupation

Making money just to dream about other parts of the nation

Does it make sense to work every day of the year

not at all but we’re driven by fear

That we wont have that vacation that we always dreamed of

when we retire at the age of 65 or above.

Let me tell you a secret you might not know

even if you can retire at 65, the vacation will probably never show

So do yourself a favor and give yourself a break

take off a week and sit by the lake

enjoy the time you have now and forget about when you retire

because retiring in 40 years is not something to aspireSimilar Posts:

Dead End Job

Flid — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 16:59:25 +0000

Have you ever been stuck in a dead end job?

You work in a cubicle with a guy named Bob

going over the same types of reports each day

just dreaming of a chance to get away

I’m not in that position, no siree

My cubicle neighbor’s name is not Bob you see.Similar Posts:

Stupid Paycheck

Flid — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 16:59:10 +0000

For a stupid paycheck, I sold my soul

putting in 100 hour weeks is my toll

I’d be so much better off outside of these walls

I feels it each time I take a walk in the halls

I need freedom and space and time to think

I need to get away because i’m starting to stink

i’d spend more time with my family and friends

and for all the lost time i will make amends

i’ll travel and golf and smell the flowers too

Oh there is a whole world of things I will do

I’ll eat right and excersize and shed some pounds

and then go out with friends and drink a few rounds

I’ll sleep in in the morning and go to sleep late at night

and never again have to put up with the get out of bed fight

But I better stop dreaming the boss is back

and I’m addicted to my paycheck like a guy addicted to crackSimilar Posts:

Going to Quit
