This is the gear of a man working for minimum wage. A man with a job in the morning and another at night. A man whose gear describes his limited resources. The hat to battle the sun as he walks from the bus stop to the doors of his job. The stained leather boots for walking from A to B to C. The power-packed meal to satisfy a hungry stomach before the next job. A charging cable for a simple cell phone. A black, durable leather jacket for the night journey home. This man works hard. He does jobs most of us don't want. The premises are clean and spotless thanks to his dirty hands. I am very fortunate to have him in my crew. What I need to do more often is thank him for all his hard work. I am sure you work with someone like him, thank him too.
A personal, lightly edited and original collection of poems, prose, opinions, pictures and works of art.
