Twas the night before Christmas, in the office (quite late)
All the other employees had left by seven (or eight)
Only one soul was left, with her head in a binder:
Mary, an online instructional course designer.
Her screen bathed her face in a pale blue glow
While out in the street it was starting to snow
And her eyes had a sorrow none ever had seen
As they stared sad and bleakly at her workstation screen.
While the rest of her friends were at some Christmas party
Or at home with their family and pets, being hearty
Mary had been charged with a grave, daunting task
Of training the employees of the company, fast!
Her boss was insistent, her deadline was near:
“It’s of absolute, vital importance, my dear!
We must find a solution, with no more hesitation,
To train up and certify our reps ’cross the nation.
