Three Types of Leaders ( Poem )

Different Jobs Styles Poem   I just graduated  My first job is complicated   My boss is had I have a lot to do But there's no time  I tried to stay  But that's improbable   My second job is so easy My boss doesn't care  I have nothing to do  Boredom killed me  So I quit  My third job is the best My boss is so rightfully He gives my work And he gives a good time  I finished on time  We are both happy  I wish to stay forever
