Photo Studio Packages

Janet Kuypers
5/12/12

So at my job,
I’m supposed to sell
photo studio packages
to people walking by.
Now, I know what I’m selling
is a great bargain,
I just bought one for myself,
but forty-five percent
of the people that come by
speak another language,
and forty-three percent
of the people use canes,
wheelchairs or oxygen masks.
This leaves me twelve percent
of the people that walk by
that I have a chance
to talk to, much less
sell anything to.
So all I can do
is keep grinning,
because I have no choice,
it’s my job,
and someday someone’s
gonna see my smile,
see what’s for sale
and save me
until the next customer.
