Dear Temp Services Manager,

We would like to lodge a complaint

against your employee,

Boredom.

Hired, due to his

supposedly stellar skills

highlighted on your website.

Boredom is the impetus for

reviving long lost skills

He will create the space

for developing new talents

And be an engine for introspection

meditation and grace

The perfect antidote to worry, rush

and chaos

After many weeks in our employ,

he has shown himself to be dull, draining and full of despair.

And has, in fact, created a workplace culture of apathy and anger,

an atmosphere of staleness and stagnation.

The other employees have reported finding themselves

in a fog of fraying nerves, fading hope and lost marbles.

In conclusion, we believe you greatly exaggerated Boredom’s skills

and abilities and we request a full and immediate refund.

Also, please come fetch him because we cannot get him to leave.

Sincerely,

The World
