You used to be employed at this bank as a clerk.
But you screwed things up because you//'//re a jerk.
You brought your goat to work with you and put her in the vault.
Your nanny ate about three million dollars and it//'//s all your fault.
You learned that there is very little air in the vault when you found your goat dead.
When I saw what your goat did, "You//'//re Fired!" were the two words that I said.
Your goat suffocated but before she died, the damage had been done.
I nearly lost my job, you//'//d better be glad that I decided to pawn my gun.
You begged me not to fire you, it makes me mad to see a grown man whine.
I will not give you a reference, go stand in the unemployment line.
I made a good decision when I fired you, I//'//m glad you//'//re no longer a clerk.
When you find another job, use your intelligence, don//'//t take a goat to work.

well now, I worked with goats, and they do eat up, as everybody does know, just about anything, but, and this is also true, they are stubborn as all get out, this I know is true because I worked with them, and I still do.

It/'/s clear we all do too!

Nice write Randy!
Peace!

well now, I worked with goats, and as everybody does know they like to eat up almost everything. Yet, it/'/s important to know that most of us still do work with goats all of our lives, it is the goats, those damn goats,
who get the best of us.

Nice write Randy!

Peace!
