The Job That Changed a Life


Meghan was a single mother of two

She worked until her fingers were red and blue

Her poor children would always whine and whine

One day she decided that would be the last time they whined

Meghan started working two jobs to support her family

But she was soon fired from her first job, what a calamity

That night Meghan cried until her tears were all dried up

A few weeks later she met the mayor close up

Meghan explained to him her life story

He gave her a job working with his wife, Lori

Lori and Meghan became very close friends

Meghan never had to worry about working again
