Job Expects Me To Take Work Home: Stoicess’ Poem

June 17, 2024

Covid made a real change to life;
since its event, your life is now full of strife.

 

Leaving work at the office was the previous norm,
being available 24/7 is now the new form.

 

Your front bedroom and many times your bed,
have become the second most used offices instead.

 

The bosses will appear on your screen any time of the night,
it’s sometimes as if they just need a therapist or someone to write.

 

Those midday crises were tough enough to handle before,
but they’ve slipped over to your sleepy time when you’ve already closed your mental door.

 

Even more problematic are the mistakes you’re now making;
you’re tired, can’t think straight – while the boss thinks you’re faking.

 

The Bible tells us that whatever we do;
to work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, until the job is all through.

 

But there’s also a limit with what God wants from you;
even Moses had to learn to appoint others to help him do his work, so he could get through.

 

So, follow Moses’s path and sleep with tranquility;
“Lights Out” – “We’re Closed” is now your motto to increased productivity.
