Remote work is best by far.

It's less wear and tear on my car.

I can take care of my plants

And wear stretchy pants.

Best of all, there's no office swear jar.

***

One time when I was on Zoom

With no background to block out my room,

My husband walked past,

Completely bare-assed,

And my coworkers saw a full moon.

    Awesome! Witty commentary on remote work. The final verse on each limerick is unexpected and has a great punch! The first four verses build up to that last verse with fun and quick motion. Love the plants and stretchy pants! And the swear jar? Genius.
