GOVERNMENT

[Judy Loux]

*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.
