So much in this new job to deal with, and I am not used to using my brain, or the lack thereof...ed


Poem Artwork

Job Jitters…


 


A new job I do have,


Working on the road I can do no problem,


But this job has so much to learn,


So many regulations and procedures,


Must be why the money I do earn,


Is better than most other jobs I have spurned…


 


So many positive benefits coming my way,


Including the fact of my pay,


A new car to use at my leisure,


Even on vacation for my pleasure,


Medical benefits do start real soon,


So I can take the drugs that keep me from being a loon…J


 


So many things to learn though,


I am not sure I can input it all,


My mind is not used to being overtaxed,


Guess it is because on most other jobs I was relaxed…


 


Given time I am sure I will fare well,


Glad I do not have to for this company sell,


I really, regards this position, did step in “it”,


Hell, more so than stepping in it, I may have fell…


 


So please all friends and fellow poets,


Please keep me in your prayers or daily thought,


I look forward to working and enjoying this job,


Its what I have been looking for, yes, I sought…
