Free advice to the working girl and worth every penny.

Girls, don’t go fishing from the company pier.
It’s against the rules or so I hear.
Don’t  look for romance at work–wait till five o’clock
Then you can throw a line off a better dock.

Girls, don’t go fishing from the company pier.
The guy in the next cubicle may look like a dear.
You may think he’s cute; so does his loving wife
And you don’t want to be the one messing up his life.

Girls, don’t go fishing from the company pier.
Don’t hang around the break room–no big one here.
If you have to throw a small one back it’ll be your loss.
Only fish the company pier if you can catch the boss.

    Did you write this one for me?
    lol
    Yeah, that’s why I am now “carding” any one who may be interested and require proof of eligibility. (in layman’s terms, if you claim to be divorced will need to see final declaration.) Unfortunately, I have seen more than my fair share of final decrees.
    Should add, if he cheats on his wife with you, it’s a safe bet he’ll cheat on you.
