youtube/watch?v=kgkMlEn8L2E Its an analogy, lead vocalist George Pettit begins. I wrote it inspired by my father who worked at a job where he designed refrigerator parts for 26 years. He was coming up to his pension the last three years and I guess when people are coming up to their pension they really put the screws to them. Theyre up for review all the time, trying to get them to quit so that they forfeit their pension. It really makes it a stressful last three years. The song is kind of about that, about there being no loyalty in the workplace. And my mother went to this conference talking to different generations in the workplace and they referred to her generation as boiled frogs. The analogy is that if you take a frog and put it in boiling water, it will jump right out immediately, but if you put it in cold water and then you slowly turn the heat up, theyll just eventually fall asleep and die. Same way with people in the workplace. If its too hectic when they first get there, theyll just quit and get another job, but if you slowly up the workload, lower the pay, theyre more likely to sit there and just boil.
