My Job is the Worst in the WorldA Poem by Elton CampDo not be too quick to say that.My Job is the Worst in the World By Elton Camp These words I have heard people say And I’m sure they really feel that way The work is hard and the pay is too low And far too early it is that they must go “The people I deal with are dumb & crude And my boss is unreasonable and so rude.” “My coworkers are all disgustingly snotty And I don’t even have time for the potty.” “For advancement, they is absolutely no chance Unless I let the boss get his hands in my pants.” “After all the deductions have been taken out If I can make the week I have serious doubt.” “It was terribly hard for me to first get hired, But make jut one mistake and I will be fired.” But think: No matter how bad you job may be Others are worse at least by a factor of three Consider the toothbrush who tended to gripe Until the toilet tissue said, “Look what I wipe.”
