They work shorter hours –
much flexibility,
they know what’s required
and don’t seem unhappy.
They stand longer
without break,
finish earlier
without complaint.
It could be worse –
a very decent rate,
no notice, no sick pay
but an hour’s lunch break,
No-one compels,
they all freely relent,
life on the edge
must be convenient.
From my short poetry collection, Last Day and Other Poems, available on Amazon or Smashwords.
