Desk Life

Going to work every day

Tackling the challenges that come your way

Dealing with things, easy and tough

Dealing with people, smooth and rough.

Desk Life.

All in a day’s work.

All in a day’s work.

Drinking gobs of coffee to get your brain going

What the day will bring, you have no way of knowing

Taking a break, here and there

Mostly pretty much stuck in your chair.

All in a day’s work.

All in a day’s work.

Calendar says, oh glorious, you are going to a meeting

Off to the conference room, to find seating

Trying not to yawn, you listen to different people bleating

All the while, thinking of the Chick-fil-A sandwich on your desk, you could be eating.

Lunchtime comes, and you eat your sandwich, or go out and eat

If you are shy, introverted, busy, or in the packed lunch category, you don't leave your seat

Bathroom breaks may be the only time you stretch your feet

It's when you think, if I could be invisible, it would be neat.

Afternoons are for glancing at the clock, time and again

If it's going slow, resisting the desire to exclaim

That heavy lunch, and being up so late last night, you now regret

But you keep sitting in your chair,  because oh, glorious, it's several hours till the end of the day, yet.

Finally, it arrives - hallelujah, the end of the workday

You're out of there, before Mr Officious next to you can say "Hey!"

Speeding home, or to the gym, you pat yourself on the back, and say

“Yay, I survived another working day.”

All those in favor of a 32 hour work week, say "Aye"
