Poem to Celebrate the Working Class

08/16/2024 by Roy Sutton

In a world driven by ambition, and big money, it’s easy to overlook the quiet strength of those good people on whom much of society depends. The people who make a difference and without whom nothing would work. In short, where would we be without the working class?

The working class, also known as the working poor or blue-collar workers, refers to people employed in occupations requiring either manual labour or modest levels of skill, often with limited financial resources and social mobility.

I don’t think such people get the credit they deserve for the contribution they make. So, in today’s poem, I thought it was time we honoured them.

These people are the hands that build, the minds that create, and the spirits that persevere through challenges most of us will never see.

Today’s poem is a tribute to those unsung heroes.

They deserve recognition, and they deserve more than they get.

Let’s take a few moments to remember ordinary people.

Poem about the need to be businesslike

08/03/2024 by Roy Sutton

Here’s a poem about the need to be businesslike.

You must always be businesslike in everything you do, especially if you’re a creative person reliant on agents and advisors. Never assume people won’t rip you off. They will, if they’re given the chance.

Easy money can tempt even normally honest people, should they feel the need.

Never take your eye off the financial ball. Failing to do so could prove very costly.

Success is something many say they want, but few are prepared to do what is necessary to achieve it.

Yes, it’s possible and many achieve great things, but nothing happens by accident. You have to want it, and you have to want it badly.

Poem about the dangers of Internet dating

08/01/2024 by Roy Sutton

Today I offer you a poem about the dangers of internet dating.

We live in a world where bringing together lonely hearts can be tricky. This is why internet dating was invented. However, lonely hearts are vulnerable and can be easily exploited.

And if something can be easily exploited for money, it will be. Internet dating can be a minefield for the unwary.

When looking for love online, you must be very careful. Always be conscious that if your relationship is conducted solely through cyberspace, you have no idea whether the person with whom your interacting is genuine or not.

As we age, it’s natural to be conscious of our mortality and reflect on death and the afterlife. This is particularly true once our parents pass away, or it has been in my experience.

So, as I have been thinking about it all, I thought capturing my thoughts in the form of poems would be a good idea.

6 top job interview questions to help you prepare

09/24/2023 by Roy Sutton

When you’re finally leaving full-time education, your first job interview can be a daunting prospect. Dealing with job interview questions can be tricky if you haven’t done some preparatory work beforehand.

I’ve recorded one of my early experiences in the form of a poem, which I’ve included here.

The key takeaway message is ‘be prepared’.

Interview Mindset:

In order to be prepared, you need to understand the hiring manager’s interview mindset.

As a former hiring manager, I can tell you that, when you’re being interviewed, hiring managers have three questions in their heads: –

Can you do the job? That is, do you have the skills required?
Will you do the job? That is, do you have the motivation to do the job well?
Will you fit in? That is, will you get along well with other team members?

Put concisely, they’re considering your SKILLS, MOTIVATION & FIT.

Your mindset in an interview should be, “How do I reassure them that I’m the answer to their prayers because I have exactly what they need?“

Job Interview Questions:

The hiring manager will seek to answer the aforementioned three questions, by asking you a series of questions, and they’re all predictable.

Here are the top 6 job interview questions that are most commonly asked by hiring managers: –

Can you tell me a little bit about yourself?
Why are you interested in this position?
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Can you give an example of a time when you overcame a challenge?
Where do you see yourself in five years?
What do you know about this company/organization?

Your responses to these questions will determine whether you’re successful or not.

So, before you go for an interview, make sure you’re well-prepared. Prepare concise responses to these questions and don’t waffle. Think of it as having a quiver full of arrows ready to hit every target put before you.

And remember also, for every skill you claim to have, be prepared to provide an example of where you’ve used that skill with at least some degree of success.

REMEMBER: Prepare well and you’ll present well. Present well and you’ll give yourself the best chance of success.

As a hiring manager, I have always been impressed by candidates who are well-prepared.

Poem about a job interview:

Anyway, without further ado, here’s today’s poem. It describes how I got it wrong by not being prepared. That said, I only made the mistake once.

Please share this post with your friends:

So dear reader, did you find this post and the poem about a job interview useful?

I hope you did, anyway.

And if what you’ve read was useful and interesting, please share it with your friends on social media. When you share, everyone wins.

So go on, please share it now. You’ll be helping a keen blogger reach a wider audience and that will be truly appreciated.

Thank you. for your support, dear reader.
