The Manager

She supervisors the Salon with aplomb Looking after her own clients with skill Yet keeping a watchful eye on all Trainees are dispatched to various duties Computers crash but she handles all Her skills as a hairdresser are renown Yet her greatest skill is in managing her staff With authority and yet with a lot of heart Yes TV Guru Tabatha she would be so very proud This lady does not need hauling over the coals Eager to teach, to discipline, even command Yet able to gain respect with any request Hair swiftly swept off floor, clients seated Clients constantly buzzing in and out as the day passes Always a quick chat, and praising word to staff Hiding her hidden frustration as much as she can This is a skill she learnt through time and necessity Coffee quickly dispatched, staff rushing back and forth Without her enthusiasm no Awards would be ever won This is her empire to the highest bidder she will not be sold Yes, she is a Manager simply worth her weight in gold
