Tis supposed to be the season to be jolly
But I find it ruined by corporate folly
By this mean, I groan and sneer
Meanwhile, all the normal people smile and cheer
For what comes soon is entertaining
But for me, I’m stuck with corporate trainings
They search for gifts or something new, maybe crafts and trinkets too
But for me, I have certificates to renew
Many others get fuller shelves
But for me they added something else?
They say it’s for our good and safety
but they’ve been taking so much more time lately
“Did you submit this completement slip?”
My father’s Christmas gift just shipped!
Letters and packages loom
While I’m watching this lecture on Zoom
They stop on purpose to ask us questions
I give them all the wrong answers did I mention?
I get a chuckle or a laugh
But unfortunately, it didn’t pass
They ask someone else the exact same question
Hoping to get the correct expression
I see someone else did comply
And gave the host the expected reply
They all nod their head in agreement
Is this a form of twisted appeasement?
Maybe next year it’ll be online text
So I click and click next and next
Never reading a single word
And still passing the quiz, absurd.
The season comes to the bitter end
But next year the trainings come again
I ask myself what did I learn?
Nothing and got useless PDFs I earned
Every year these records get burned
Every year, less I endured
I overhear supervisors talk and talk
I listen in and it makes me gawk
“We have new problem with the staff”
“Do they need class? Better! Online training?!”
“It’s better than a class, that’ll make them happy!”
“it’ll be just an hour long, that’s pretty snappy!”
Overcome with doom and gloom
I need to get out of here pretty soon…
Merry Christmas Everyone!
