New Words to Beverly Hillbilly’s

Sing to tune of “The Beverly Hillbilly’s”

New words – old song

Come listen to a story ’bout a man named Jed,
A poor college kid, barely kept his family fed,
But then one day he was talking to a recruiter,
Who said, “they pay big bucks if ya work on a computer…”

Windows, that is… PC’s… Internet…

Well, the first thing ya know ol’ Jed’s an engineer.
The kinfolk said “Jed, move away from here”.
They said “California is the place ya oughta be”,
So he packed up his disks and moved to Silicon Valley…

Intel, that is…Pentium … big amusement park…

On his first day at work, they stuck him in a cube.
Fed him lots of donuts and sat him at a tube.
They said “your project’s late, but we know just what to do.
Instead of 40 hours, we’ll work you 52!”

OT, that is… unpaid… no personal days…

The weeks rolled by and things were looking pretty bad.
Schedules started slipping and some managers were mad.
They called another meeting and decided on a fix.
The answer was simple… “We’ll work him 66!”

Tired, that is… stressed out… no social life…

Months turned to years and his hair was turning gray.
Jed worked very hard while his life slipped away.
Waiting to retire when he turned 64,
Instead he got a call and escorted out the door.

Laid off, that is… de-briefed…unemployed…

Now the moral of the story is listen to what you’re told,
Companies will use you and discard you when you’re old.
So gather up your friends and start up your own firm,
Beat the competition, watch the bosses squirm.

Millionaires, that is… Bill Gates… Steve Jobs…

Y’all come back now… ya hear’

Some guy bought a new refrigerator for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: “Free to good home. You want it, you take it”. For three days the fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. He eventually decided that people were too untrusting of this deal. It looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: “Fridge for sale $50″ The next day someone stole it. Caution! . . . . . . . . . .These people Vote
