"I LOVE MY JOB,
I LOVE MY JOB,
I LOVE MY JOB!"
This is a true story about a man named Rob.
Rob is a commerical diver, what a job!
He performs underwater, repairs rigs for drilling.
His Sister Sue received this letter, quite thrilling!
Hi Sue,
Just a note from your bottom-dwelling brother.
Sue says, "I'd just had a bad day at the office, like no other!
Rob replies, "I know you've been feeling down lately....
Your office job sounds beastly.
So, I thought I would share my dilemma with you.
May help you realize your job is not so bad, a fresher view.
As you know my office lies at the bottom of the sea.
I wear a suit to my office, it's a wet suit, you see.
This time of year the water is very cold.
We have a diesel powered industrial water heater.
$20,000 piece of equipment sucks sea water, warms it amply.
After it is delightfully warmed, it's pumped to the diver.
Through a garden hose, which is taped to his air breather.
Good plan, I've used it several times, no complaints.
I stuff the hose down the back of my wet suit, no constraints.
This fills my wet suit with nice warm water, just right.
It's like working on land when the sun is bright
Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt itched!
Naturally, I scratched it which enriched the twitch!
Then my butt began to burn, I pulled the hose out.
The damage was already done, I had been stung, by a Jellyfish lout!
In my wet suit a jellyfish had been sucked in by the machine.
My back has no hair for it to stick to, he slide down in-between!
As I scratched, I was grinding him into my butt crack.
I informed the Supervisor up above of my agonizing dilemma.
Instructions I heard coming back were completely unclear.
Laughing hysterically, along with five other divers,
they could care less about my rear!
I don't have to tell you that I aborted the dive.
Instructed to make three agonizing in-water decompression stops, to stay alive.
Which simply meant thirty-five minutes before I could surface.
As I surfaced the only thing I was wearing was my brass helmet over my face!
Climbing out, the medic, with tears of laughter,
Handed me a tube of cream, to soothe my bum.
So swollen my behind, I couldn't poop for 2 days, that's no fun!!!
So, next time you've had a bad day at work.
Just remember your poor ole brother with a smirk.
It could be so much worse with a Jellyfish shoved up your butt like Rob......
And then repeat this to yourself:
"I love my job, I love my job, I love my job!"
I received the story from a dear friend,
The poem is mine.
