My Job Resume
Little Joey was over at his favorite Uncle Louey\\u2019s apartment visiting for an afternoon, and they were chatting as they often did.\\xa0Now, Uncle Louey wasn\\u2019t noted for being able to hold down a job very long, and he always had some story to tell.\\xa0That is probably why little Joey liked visiting him so often.\\xa0As Joey and Louey were chatting about adventures and going fishing, Joey looked at him and said, \\u201cmy mama says you can never keep a job. Uncle Loey, why is that?\\u201d\\xa0Uncle Louey agreed and stared off into the air for a bit and then said, \\u201cwell, let me explain the reasons.\\u201d
My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned... couldn\\u2019t concentrate.
Then I worked in the woods as a lumberjack, but I just couldn\\u2019t hack it, so they gave me the ax.
After that, I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn\\u2019t suited for it...mainly because it was a so-so job.
Next, I tried working in a muffler factory, but that was too exhausting.
I tried to be a barber, but I just couldn\\u2019t cut it.
Then I tried to be a chef -- figured it would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn\\u2019t have the thyme.
I attempted to be a deli worker, but any way I sliced it, I couldn\\u2019t cut the mustard.
My best job was being a musician, but eventually, I found I wasn\\u2019t noteworthy.
I studied for a long time to become a doctor, but I didn\\u2019t have any patience.
Next was a job in a shoe factory - I tried, but I just didn\\u2019t fit in.
I became a professional fisherman but discovered that I couldn\\u2019t live on my net income.
I managed to get a good job working for a pool maintenance company, but the work was just too draining.
I got a job at a zoo feeding giraffes, but I was fired because I wasn\\u2019t up to it.
So then I got a job in a workout center, but they said I wasn\\u2019t fit for the job.
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.
My last job was working at Starbucks, but I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
So, then I retired...and found out I was perfect for the job!
I hope that brought a smile to your face today.\\xa0If it did pass your smile onto some else, we all could use a kind smile each day.\\xa0Our Thursday thought is, \\u201cSuccess seems to be connected to action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they never quit.\\u201d
Here is our verse for today:
(https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2013%3A11&version=NLT)
