A Tough Job Poem by Andrew W.K. Yip

A Tough Job shows our Spirit of Endeavor.
The spirit and strength to persevere
In a crisis and moments of need.
One must be strong in work and deed.

Really, a tough job is an acid test
Of will and endurance without rest.
There are heavy loads to hold and lift,
No time to play or dream or drift.

Hard work, hard decisions, will come our way
Face them, tackle them, each and every day.
Plainly, this tough job keeps our lives secure,
A simple sacrifice for the family, pure and sure.
