[Joke] By our librarian, who mistakenly took the wrong toner when I was away...

[localzuk]

Whilst I was away from the school at a job interview, our librarian needed a new toner. She picked out the wrong one, and this is the poem she wrote of the event.

Best read in a southwest accent.

ODE TO TONER

My printer needed toner; I knew what I must do,
For Tony was in distant parts to start his life anew.

I wandered to the cupboard so I wouldn’t be a bother
But instead of getting Epson, I alighted on a Brother!

I took it from its packet and to the library flew,
But though I had the cyan, I still was feeling blue!

I realised my error, I had the perfect hue,
But a Brother ain’t an Epson, so what’s a girl to do?

I returned it to its wrapper, replaced it on the shelf,
I closed the door behind me and then removed myself.

But my conscience kept on pricking me; I knew that I’d been bad,
‘Cos you mess with Tony’s toner and all you’ll feel is sad!

And so I keep on ‘cyan’, for how things might have been
If I hadn’t been a plonker, and kept my fingers clean!

So please, forgive me Tony, I didn’t mean to do it’
But when it comes to toner..........I think I went and ‘blue’ it!!!!

If you read it in a Pam Ayres style, it is brilliant!

+1 rep for your librarian!

Is there some way we can +REP the librarian

[JonWPS]

Superb.

[Tricky_Dicky]

That's fantastic. Most staff would have just blamed me for having the wrong toner in stock.

Yeah, you'll have to pass on how impressed we all are...she's published now

[joe90bass]

Awesome!

[bossman]

+1 for the librarian, I too read it in a Pam Ayres style excellent

[synaesthesia]

Brilliant if only all staff were so creative! Admission to taking something, humbleness, and an explanation all in one very well written poem - she should be published!

[LiamH]

[Little-Miss]
