When I was working at Amex, I was hanging out with one of the security guys while on break. As I was leaving to go back, I said, “Back to the salt mine.” He replied, “No, because a salt mine actually produces something.”
Don’t you just love it when your father is so inspirational and admirable, and he makes you believe you are special and can grow up to become the president of the USA?
Brutus needs to exude a more positive attitude for work. Maybe say “Just another day in the gilded hamster cage”, or maybe, “A great day in the ferret suite” might work.
Usually, I have heard the expression regarding being on the hamster wheel rather than in the cage. Poor Brutus. He could at least be bored to death from monotony and not locked up.

And as he hung up his coat, it occurred to him
He’d grow up just like him
His boy is just like him

did the wheel broke off the wall when you rode on it or are you just sore from running on it? :D

Brutus and Wilberforce just two little hamsters in a big ole Hamster cage of life. Neither can get past the wheel an on to the reward.

In Wilberforce’s case it was probably his turn to clean out the class hamster cage.

All these days on the hamster wheel hasn’t done much for his physique.
