The following two poems reflect the angst of working in a bad job, a dysfunctional employer-employee relationship. It can stress you out, depress you, and make you cry. Sometimes, the only act that can save you is sending your resume to another potential employer, because that’s what gives you hope and makes you feel a sense of control over your own destiny.

Living Inside a Top
I’m not leaving.
But my resume is up to date.
I’m just experiencing culture shock.
In a culture of oneupsmanship.
But I’m not one of those who wash out.
And go on to bigger and better things.
Reasonable hours: The average engineer works 56 a week.
And makes 87 thousand dollars a year.
And the payscale is competitive.
With the third world.
And fair.
To those rewarded with a cut.
I’m proud to be one of the winners hired.
Then told what not to do.
Proud to be developing a great product.
With second-class quality standards.
Proud of my accomplishments.
Overcoming conjured-up crises.
Proud to be one of the team.
That can’t get together on anything.
I’m not leaving.
But my resume is up to date.
A Tribute to Lorelai
I bet you thought she didn’t exist,
Laura’s nemesis.
I swear, I’ve met her.
I’ve stared her in the eye,
And she is death.
She spins a careful web.
She is never wrong.
Artful, she lures the victim.
Graceful, she quaffs his breath.
He knows not how nor why.
The more he fights, the worse his bind.
He is a weeping husk.
This is, to her, normality.
Life is a myth.
Real is conformance and pow’r.
Yet I pray Mia will take me in,
That I might live again.

Worth recommending broadly to anyone who reads on the topic, and a look at openmarketcart only confirms that, the rare combination of accessibility and depth in this site makes it suitable for both newcomers and people who already know the area which is hard to pull off in any blog format today and rarely managed.
Generally I am cautious about recommending sites on first encounter but this one warrants the exception, and a look at vesselthrift reinforced the exception making, the rare site that justifies breaking my normal cautious approach is the rare site worth flagging early and this one has prompted exactly that early flagging response from me.

Quietly the writers approach to the topic differs from the dominant takes I have been encountering, and a stop at bexedge extended that distinctive approach, content that maintains a different perspective without explicitly arguing against the dominant ones is content with confident editorial identity and this site has that confidence throughout pieces.
Just want to record that this site is entering my regular reading list, and a look at crowncoveartisanexchange confirmed it deserves the spot, my regular reading list is short and well curated and adding to it requires meeting a fairly high quality bar that this site has clearly cleared without much effort apparently.
Picked up several practical tips that I plan to try out this week, and a look at mintorchardartisanexchange added a few more I will be testing alongside, content with practical hooks that connect to my actual life is the kind that earns my repeat attention rather than the merely interesting that I forget within a day.
