High Percentage
My father had many favorite sagings
But the 1 he had cause to use the most
Was people are crap
And don't count on it till the
cheque is actually banked
But in more colourful choice word's
than that
And give him his due
In my experience
He was 95% right
Sincerest appologies to the other 5
To whom sorry is a foreign vocabulary
This is written in response to a job interview resulting in a handshake
and i will e-mail the employment contact over to you
Only to follow up and be told sorry the position has already been filled you were only on the shortlist
So moral of the story must be this
A man's word and handshake are not his bond
