She Was a Self Promoter

She was a self promoter
Other talents not obvious
Not a person to pitch in

She was not someone you could count on
Always singing her praises.
Some days she would brag about
Saving people's lives

We were quite doubtful
As she never offered to help
Anyone at work

It always amazes me that they get awards galore and yet no one remembers them helping anyone.
