My Cover letter to Apple

I'm pretty proud of this one. Looking to apply with Apple soon for a position as a tech. Working from home with a big pay increase sounds pretty good. And you know, find a job doing what you love and you'll never work a day in your life. So, y'know... yeah.

Anyways, I will have to beg forgiveness that the rhyme rhythm does indeed change, but I think it reads well and I've decided to keep it as is. I am usually tweaking and adjusting some syllables here and there, but I'd say this is in the final two or three drafts.

Enjoy! And Wish me luck!
-Alex

To whom it is that may concern,
My name is Michael Alexander,
And I truly hope you'd like to learn,
About this lad, and take a gander.


My years in retail are unfulfilling.
Some time in hardware and paint for spilling.
I love the people who need my advice,
Though they don't often like my product’s price.


They say that working for you is a sure delight
And if you've read so far, please hear my plight.


Though I primarily use my home PC
I know Apple is best for artists in need.
Editing film and music is easiest by far,
When you've got Steve Jobs riding side-car.


All the skills you want are found revolving,
Around a few simple traits in problem solving.
To some, it’s work but not for me.
Fixing devices is like honey made by bees.


You may have noticed my love for words
As my speech is rarely ever slurred.
I am a master of communication,
Provided it's with an English translation.


So please recognize my struggle,
Whilst you prepare for your rebuttal.
And consider me for your position,
I promise to be a worthy acquisition.


I thank you greatly for your time.
As wasting it is quite the crime.
Call me soon for friendly banter,
Sincerely yours, ‘Alexander’.
