    Losing the will to live today.....

    Went to senior management to discuss how the testers on a huge Oracle implementation will be brought up to speed – thinking requirements, reviews, walkthroughs and all of that.

    The genius response from the senior dude? Give the testers the Oracle manual.

              Ne’er scorn a poor Poet like me,
              For idly just living and breathing,
              While people of every degree
              Are busy employed about—naething.

                  Some thoughts for your situation:


                  Through early morning fog I see
                  visions of the things to be
                  the pains that are withheld for me
                  I realize and I can see...

                  [REFRAIN]:

                  that suicide is painless
                  It brings on many changes
                  and I can take or leave it if I please.

                  I try to find a way to make
                  all our little joys relate
                  without that ever-present hate
                  but now I know that it's too late, and...

                  [REFRAIN]

                  The game of life is hard to play
                  I'm gonna lose it anyway
                  The losing card I'll someday lay
                  so this is all I have to say.

                  [REFRAIN]

                  The only way to win is cheat
                  And lay it down before I'm beat
                  and to another give my seat
                  for that's the only painless feat.

                  [REFRAIN]

                  The sword of time will pierce our skins
                  It doesn't hurt when it begins
                  But as it works its way on in
                  The pain grows stronger...watch it grin, but...

                  [REFRAIN]

                  A brave man once requested me
                  to answer questions that are key
                  is it to be or not to be
                  and I replied 'oh why ask me?'

                  [REFRAIN]

                  'Cause suicide is painless
                  it brings on many changes
                  and I can take or leave it if I please.
                  ...and you can do the same thing if you please.
