Too Sick To Go To Work

Too Sick to Come to Work By Elton Camp Yesterday, Joe work up with the flu To stay home from work he must do “How they will get by, I don’t know However, I am just a lot too sick to go.” Joe thought about the office with dismay How, without him, it must be in disarray Phone rang, he thought, urging his return Although he did with a high fever burn “It’s your supervisor,” his wife did say And they have had a most marvelous day.” “He wants you to take off a week or two Because so much more work they can do.” Always at work is the best way, no doubt Don’t show how easy you are to do without
