Genuinely Promoted

From lugging heavy boxes in a distribution place, To taking pinewood coffins to a so called place of grace. From melting from the heat from six till half past three, To eating currant buns and drinking nice hot cups of tea. From hassle from the bosses; there are far too many of them, To driving around in solitude, with no one to shout your name. From stitching machines and printing machines on the shop floor, To making personal enquiries at some brand new prospects door. From being driven crazy by the boredom of the job, To have the joy of being able to earn a few more bob. From the pittance of a wage that was forever small, To a salary that makes you feel almost ten feet tall. From the humblest of positions, in a factory set-up, To driving bones and bodies to the hospital make-up. From this most unusual tale, I'm sure you've got the notion, That if you leave the factory, it's sure to be PROMOTION. Even a funeral assistant gets twice as much or more, Than all of these workers on this factory shop floor. So Neil we wish you all the best in your new position, There won’t be any hassle because it's just DEAD opposition. Robert Cartwright-Davidson
