For the greater portion of the working population, our job descriptions typically match our personal description. Ex.:

capable of assisting, full time, a busy Law Firm.

Job Req. include office management, shipping

and receiving of confidential information,

assisting in staff prep. for meeting and transactions

and proper direction of a voluminous call center.

.

The above want at represents a need for a highly organized, helpful, personal individual with experience in an office setting.

Typically, the person for this job is a grumpy, ornery, overweight older woman, unmarried for a reason, who never says anything rude (without a smile.)

So then, you ask, just who is this Young John caracter? Have you any guesses? You have seen him here for over a year, had a chance to learn his deepest desires, some secrets, and some gossip about our not-so-hero. Is he a construction worker? A doctor, a Pastor, or a Lawyer, a clerk, or a pizza delivery man? Just what is he?

Does Young's profession define him, or does Young John Define his profession?

I will remind you of what you already know and let you decide for yourself.

Young, well versed in all musical styles, impacts, and artists, movements and sources, does not indeed, play a piano, guitar, fife, or cello himself.

Young, with a great respect for the written word and a love of classical and modern literature, who is not without a conversational understanding of French, Spanich, Latin, Yiddish, Jive and Russian, does not spend his days writing or teaching nor in analysis of literature as a greater part of his general profession.

He does not conduct a train.

Or deliver flowers, confections, medications, or advertisements.

Young would never expect to be hired as an executive chef,

No matter how greatful one might be to eat at his table.

He has not wasted years of schooling stocking shelves at a local Wal-mart either.

Young doesn't NOT have a job.

Young simply happens to be on of the very few stand out men who forms his own description, who rises above his mere position to grant the world a view of an unencombered Young.

Young works diligently to support his new bride.

Young loves his career as if it were a tactile extension of his very being and nature.

But Young is so much more and often times viewed as less than the tasks he performs to pay the bills.

Can you say the same?
