Get This Done Before You Leave Today

 

By Elton Camp

 

“Have your analysis on my desk today.

I don’t care how late you have to stay.”

Robert knew if the boss used that tone

You’d better do it right or you are gone

 

Robert, each item in his report did check

Since he didn’t want his career to wreck

And he created bar and pie charts galore

Such a fine job hadn’t been done before

 

He worked & revised until nearly midnight

Finally, everything was done up exactly right

Just as he was about to enter the final cost,

Power flashed & the unsaved file was lost
