JOBS+POEM

__Under Construction __ __JOBS __ My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned; couldn't concentrate. Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the axe. After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited for it. Mainly it was a so-so job. Next I tried working in a muffler factory but that was exhausting. I wanted to be a barber, but I just couldn't cut it. Then I tried to be a chef - figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn't have the thyme. Finally, I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn't cut the mustard. My best job was being a musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy. I studied a long time to become a doctor, but I didn't have any patients. I became a professional fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income. Thought about becoming a witch, so I tried that for a spell. I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining. I had a job at a zoo feeding giraffes, but I was fired because I wasn't up to it. So then I got a job in a gymnasium (work out center), but they said I wasn't fit for the job. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 19px;">Next I found being an electrician interesting, but the work was shocking. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 19px;">After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a historian until I realized there was no future in it. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 19px;">My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
