What A Great Time At Work
Unexpected And Enjoyed So Much
Off to my chosen profession
Doing my regular ritual
I had know way of knowing
What was about to happen next
A smooth beginning and sensational ending
Where everyone worked
Not one person pulling the weight of many
With the weather turning in the wrong direction
To a windy and sharp cold
That cuts through you like a jagged knife
Work was a welcoming place
Meeting people who all get along
We have a history
We have the same crew for months now
Feeling at ease
The job will be done
More importantly done right
The managers on duty
Happen to be both likable and helpful
The whole eight hours of work
Seemed like a night out with friends
No stress
Each one of us doing our jobs
I know in the past I have talked about so many high expectations
Then within minutes not even hours
My bubble quickly bursts
It was something out of a script
Where each actor or actress performed their part flawless
No complaints
Better yet not body giving anyone else a hard time
This is the close as it comes
To clockwork
I won't even expect this again
Because I was so satisfied with just one good shift
Small conversations about the day
Took place like eating little minI m&m's
We all know they aren't the big ones
We love them just the same
A little taste of goodness
So as I get ready to go home
I stop and pause
Taking a deep breath and savoring the feeling for one last time
I am not sure why work went so well
I don't see anything that would stand out as a factor
As I said good bye to the manager
I think he had a pleasant time at work
Now I have planted the seed in my head
Looking forward to my future
With only twenty years left
Until I retire
I will not only have fun
I will with great confidece reassure myself that I made the right decision
Picking a job I liked doing
Doing it the best I can
Enjoying it with my coworkers
So we are not pulling each other's hair out or at each other's throats
I feel the vibes
Working with over twenty people at different times
It's nice to see
Work can be combined with pleasure
Earning a good living and having many years of good memories to reflect on
Making those tired days
A little bit sweeter and those great days even more amazing
