Got this from work a while ago. Puts a new perspective on things.

1) IN PRISON . . . you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell.
AT WORK . . . you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 cubicle.

2) IN PRISON . . . you get three meals a day.
AT WORK . . . you only get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it.

3) IN PRISON . . . you get time off for good behavior.
AT WORK . . . you get more work for good behavior.

4) IN PRISON . . . the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
AT WORK . . . you carry around a security card and open all the doors for yourself.

5) IN PRISON . . . you can watch TV and play games.
AT WORK . . . you get fired for watching TV and playing games.

6) IN PRISON . . . you get your own toilet.
AT WORK . . . you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat.

7) IN PRISON . . . they allow your family and friends to visit.
AT WORK . . . you can't even speak to your family.

8) IN PRISON . . . all expenses are paid by the taxpayer - no work required.
AT WORK . . . you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.

9) IN PRISON . . . you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out.
AT WORK . . . you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.

10) IN PRISON . . . you must deal with sadistic wardens.
AT WORK . . . they are called managers.
