i love my job

I love my job, I love the pay!

I love it more and more each day.

I love my boss, she is the best!

I love her boss and all the rest.

I love my office and its location,

I hate to have to go on vacation.

I love my furniture, drab and gray,

And piles of paper that grow each day!

I think my job is really swell,

There's nothing else I love so well.

I love to work among my peers,

I love their leers, and jeers, and sneers.

I love my computer and its software;

I hug it often though it won't care.

I love each program and every file.

I'd love them more if they worked a while.

I'm happy to be here. I am. I am.

I'm the happiest slave of the Firm, I am.

I love this work, I love these chores.

I love the meetings with deadly bores.

I love my job - I'll say it again -

I even love those friendly men.

Those friendly men who've come today,

In clean white coats to take me away!

One of the most difficult pieces of writing I had to do this week was my resume. I'm not totally satisfied with it. But I've submitted it, and it's done. Now we just wait.

What is a resume? It's really your press release, where you are marketing yourself to potential buyers (employers). My problem is: I'm the sort of person who hates having to explain myself. That makes it difficult in situations where elaboration is necessary - like writing a story.

I hate writing stories. I can’t write well. I can’t paint pictures with all the blooming daffodils and bright sunny sunflowers. I realized I do better with dark and gloomy. Recently, Koko commented and made me realized that most of my favorite songs are mostly emo. You guys must listen to Coffee And Cigarettes by Michelle Featherstone. Alsolutely superb.

I am looking forward to the Zhong making therapeutic sessions this weekend. Koko will be back to Kay El this weekend and she will be with Grandma making Zhongs. A lot of yum yum porky pork for Mr. Pork. Sigh, dreaming about coffee & pork. - J
