WHITE - COLLAR CRUNCH

Left in the lurch

After the IT crunch

Baby-boomers, techies, technocrats

All suffered alike

In many different ways

Appalling salary cut

Severe kick in the family’s butt

Wife was happy

No tension to cook

Company’s pleasure

Everyday lunch to book

Medi-claim, travel allowance

Two-tier, three-tier, and Air fair

Many more were there

Fringe benefits, incentives and sops

Ways to entice and attract

Young, dynamic and the talented lot

All these washed away with great gush

Like Titanic the IT Sector was flush

Worse befell

Month after month

Situation swelled

Once got used to luxury

This became now the misery

Unaffordable hotels, pubs, Inns,

Multiplexes added to the injury

Once upon painted the town red

Real estate share,

Page3, major dos and everywhere

With senses silence they lie almost dead
