My Dream Job

In the perfect job of which I dream,
I'll be working with great talents.
Surrounded by inflated egos
I will strive to keep my balance.

To find success, I'll surely need
A lot more gain than loss.
I'll be so happy not to be
Kowtowing to a boss.

I'll have clients who respect me
And concede that I am right,
Who will give me the full credit
When I show them black and white.

Joyce, if you can find a job like this, please share your secret with us!! Indeed, this would be "My Dream Job" as well, especially not having to worry about pleasing bosses as much as pleasing clients. Excellent! Love, Carolyn
