That darned “Toner Out” light seemed to throw them.
They could change it themselves – I could show them.
“Like an admin assistant?
To that, we’re resistant!”
Such menial tasks were below them.
Then an engineer came on the scene,
Said, “That toner’s mine! Know what I mean?”
Would they notice them more
If the toner was stored
By the company’s coffee machine?
When the web site came under attack
It took over a week to come back.
The restart was delayed
Since no backups were made.
Now our earnings are out of the black.
My employer sure didn't get rich
With our hosting site's internet glitch.
Would I really go back
After being attacked
By that marketing management bitch?
As each upgrading notice would sail out,
That darned skinflint would throw all their mail out.
From his lack of upgrading,
His savings were fading.
Like government programs, I bailed out.

We’ve a scientist who has crusaded
Against Firefox. Man, does he hate it!
Now the browser he hates
Looks like one from Bill Gates
Which will work ‘til Mozilla upgrades it.
