An Ideal Job Is Easily Found
An Ideal Job Is Easily Found
By Elton Camp
“To find what type of job you are best fitted to and then to secure an opportunity to pursue it, is the key to happiness.” -- John Dewey
It’s now too late for me, this to do
For my working days are through
For young folks about to begin
There’s one I’d recommend
The pay’s not great, but work is steady
The skills you need you have already
If you can talk, hear and key
Then you’re likely home free
It’s not work in the blazing sun
You can quit when the day’s done
The work is all performed inside
From cold, there’s no need to hide
If a layoff should ever come around
Another like it is very easily found
“Mr. Jones, how are you today?”
Mealtime is when it’s best to say
“I’m giving you an opportunity here
To share with me something dear.”
“Your credit card is all that I need
To handle it with the greatest speed.”
Being a telemarketer is what I propose
For no jobs are more worthy than those
Separating the sucker from his dough
Will give you a happy, contented glow
