Get This Done Before You Leave Today

Get This Done Before You Leave Today By Elton Camp “Have your analysis on my desk today. I don’t care how late you have to stay.” Robert knew if the boss used that tone You’d better do it right or you are gone Robert, each item in his report did check Since he didn’t want his career to wreck And he created bar and pie charts galore Such a fine job hadn’t been done before He worked & revised until nearly midnight Finally, everything was done up exactly right Just as he was about to enter the final cost, Power flashed & the unsaved file was lost

Been there, done it. I can relate to this piece you wrote, all that work done and then gone in a flash. A great piece of creative work.
