Free Drinking Toasts About Debt

Free Drinking Toasts because problems at work are surely something to drink about. Everybody wants the perfect job, but it doesn't always happen.

Debt Dregs

You're feeling quite bitter today?
Too much work done for too little pay
Pecking keyboards, your girth

The Gerbil

Like a child's tiny pet, you run round
That treadmill, just covering ground
That goes nowhere yet,
Just serving your debt
A greedy, voracious hellhound.

Time Clock

Punch that time clock, if you please.
A pile of debt like a disease
Or a monster that feeds
On you for the needs
Of your family, so who moved your cheese?

Should ever you find yourself similarly depressed about the nine-to-five, you might consider SBI.
