He comes in
most days
around ten forty five
and his shift starts at nine
– like the rest of us.
What makes him so special?

He constantly mispronounces "supposedly"
and occasionally misuses it.
If he doesn’t want to learn the language,
why not go back to his native lands
in Connecticut?

He looks down on everything and everyone
which is really ridiculous
considering how often
his team saves his bacon-fat from the fire
and lets him maintain his airs.
How can he act so superior
when he’s clearly so inferior?

He goes by the diminutive version of his name
when he’s a full-grown man
(when he decides to act like it).
Why would someone in their thirties
choose to call himself Jimmy
when James is sophisticated,
superbly smart?
Shouldn’t he aim for something better?

He is where standards go to die.
He is so dumb, he never asks why.
he is such a loser; I don’t have to spy.
Jim’s shitty paper, only one-ply.
Why
does no one care
about what he does?
Why
do they waste their time
with me
when there is so much worse out there
right now?
