I deliberately searched
For a job
Where I would
Be kept occupied.
To ensure that my
Colleagues didn't get
A chance to grill
Me about my life,
If we were standing around.
Once, I began
To get fed up
Of the other branch,
I was wiped out
With the heat
And the constant
Flow of work I wished
I could get
A job standing
Behind a counter.
In a retail position.
If I could get
Enough confidence I
Could try for front
Of house, like a
Receptionists job. I
Went for a night
Porters job but
Made the mistake
Of allowing their
Friend request on
My Facebook that
Was evidently too sparse
For them to get an
Idea of me and it fell through.
