A Whale of a Tale

A Whale of a Tale
Said the boss of a trading facility,
Whose job was to crimp volatility:
"While I'm away jettin',
Be sure you don't threaten
The global financial stability."
This poem describes a boss of a trading facility giving hos employees some heady and essentially unusable advice.  The satire plays out as the boss is going on a vacation on a jet while his employees are forced to work to keep the economy afloat.  He puts in almost no time to his job and is paid handsomely for it.  This also pokes fun at the extremely high salaries that bosses make, and all the "jettin'" they get to do.
