Happy to have a job

There she was singing quietly to the music on the radio as she cleaned the interior of a corporate entity I visited recently. I couldn’t help but comment that she was enjoying the music as she did her work.

“I grow up on dem music,” she said of the old school reggae that was being played.

In my mind I wished her well and also said to myself that it is a pity that so many don’t seem to enjoy their jobs, or at least are happy as they work.

“It is my first day on the job,” she said, coming closer as I waited to be attended to.
