MY C V

I'm a Jack of all trades, master of none

Joiner, plumber, wife and a mum

I'm no da Vinci but I think I can paint

Colour on canvas Oh! so quaint

I can drill holes in a wall

And learned how to scrawl

Mend a hinge and fix a bracket

Even know how to make a racket

I can cook and knit and clean and sew

Go into the garden and trim a hedgerow

I've worked in a factory and in a pub

Even a shop where they served up grub

I'm quite adept on my  P C

There's much I can do ably

I can make you a card or type you a letter

Or do a spreadsheet even better

No fancy certificates on my CV

But very impressive as you see

All I'm asking for is a job

Anyone can see I'm no slob

I'm not at all choosy you see

After all I'm only 63.....

PS - it was early retirement, really -- I only had a year to go!

Hi Hazel - I like your style - nice and light, and to the point! This is very much like my experience -- I worked in factories, pubs, and finally the civil service, then took voluntary redundancy -- and after a couple of weeks found myself twiddling my thumbs, so I've ended up volunteering in a local charity shop to keep myself busy while I wait for the missus to catch me up!
