Haiku Friday: Other job possibilities...




Yesterday, I got a helpful email from LinkedIn, suggesting "Top Job Picks for You!", despite the fact that I'm pretty happy with the job I've got.  Here is their list of top job picks for me:


Discover Strength
Personal Trainer/Strength Coach
Discover Strength

Of course, I would be terrible at each and every one of these jobs. Also, how do "Superintendent of schools," utility company customer service and "personal trainer" end up on the same list? 

Anyways, let's haiku about alternative-reality employment, whether good or bad. Here, I will go first:

Bad scenario:
"Superintendent Osler"
Test scores plummet.

Now it is your turn! Just make it 5 syllable/7 syllables/5 syllables, and have some fun!

    A hapless food service guy
    Remember'd fondly.

    At four- thirty in
    The morning in a hairnet
    I caught hot breadsticks

    As they plummeted
    Down a conveyor belt and
    Put them in a box.

    It was painful and
    It was early. It was Gai's Bakery
    It was Seattle. I was 22.
