*Ten civil servants standing in a line,
One of them was downsized -- then there were nine.
*Nine civil servants who must negotiate,
One joined the union -- then there were eight.
*Eight civil servants thought they were in heaven,
'Til one of them was redeployed -- then there were seven.
*Seven civil servants, their jobs as safe as bricks,
But one was reclassified -- then there were six.
*Six civil servants trying to survive,
One of them was privatized -- then there were five.
*Five civil servants ready to give more,
But one golden handshake reduced them to four.
*Four civil servants full of loyalty,
Their jobs were all advertised -- then there were three.
*Three civil servants under review,
One left on secondment -- then there were two.
*Two civil servants coping on the run,
One went on stress leave -- then there was one.
*The last civil servant agreed to relocate,
Replaced by 10 consultants at twice the hourly rate.
