What's Better: Work, or Prison?

#1 Post by Bob Juch » Fri Feb 08, 2008 2:49 pm

An oldie but still true:

In Prison: You spend most of your time in a 10X10 cell
At Work: You spend most of your time in an 6X6 cubicle

In Prison: You get three meals a day free of charge
At Work: You get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it

In Prison: For good behavior, you get time off
At Work: For good behavior, you get more work

In Prison: The guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you
At Work: You must carry a security card and open all the doors yourself

In Prison: You can watch TV and play games
At Work: You could get fired for watching TV and playing games

In Prison: You get your own toilet
At Work: You have to share the toilet with people who pee on the seat

In Prison: They allow your family and friends to visit
At Work: you aren't even supposed to speak To your family

In Prison: All expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required
At Work: You must pay all your expenses to go to work, and they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners

In Prison: You spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out
At Work: You spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars

In Prison: You must deal with sadistic wardens
At Work: They are called 'managers'
