The Boss

The Boss

I woke up as usual
preparing to go to work
didn't occur to me that I can't...it's factual
The job I had so much treasured is gone

9 years ago...when I was called
That I got the job, I was the happiest
At least I'd take care of my mum
At least I'd pay the bills and put food on the table

I've seen several come and gone
some on there own, some sacked
I held on strongly and wouldn't let go
ask me why.......I can't tell

I've been rebuked for marrying my job
I've lost real friendship 'cos of my job
Ruined hours, days, weeks and years
All that ever mattered was my job

May be 'cos I needed the money
Money was just the call...to keep body and soul
With the job gone....so my earning
Wondering how I'd get to pay the bills

I won't lose my mind neither would I Iose heart
When I lose a job, it's time for a new start
There would always be another one
A better one if God wills

My own bad was I called the boss
For nine years nobody told me there was a rule
The rule was...Don't call the boss
I broke the rule that was never there

I'm sorry boss....I shouldn't have
Turn back the hands of time
The same would happen
'cos I was never told never to call the boss

It's True Debs...A firsthand experience. It's just that our system over here is dysfunctional and so employers treat employee the way the like and get away with it.

Your words made me smile...Thanks for the encouragement

Lots of love

Well done for this write my little Rosebud. I`m so bloody proud of you sweetie, I could shout it from the rooftops, I can`t reach that high, so I`m saying it here. You know what we have discussed already about this situation that you`re in now, so I won`t go on about it. Just remember that I`m here for you and rooting for you. When one door closes another opens up and gives a much better view sweetie, you`ll see that things will turn out okay, you just have to stay strong for a little while longer.

I LOVE YOU

Mum xx

Praying for you......and your situation...of which God knows all intricate details. Good for you, in taking this stand in your writing. In such, you took a stand for all of us, who have .....at some point in our lives, endured a bad boss and work environment. Some more than others I'm sure. Good writing of the truth Rose. Thank you.......and may God bless you with much better very soon!Β Β Β  Hugs Paula
