if 2.0
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all customers doubt you
But make no allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, but deal in bigger lies,
Or being hated, and give way to hating,
And yet look good, and talk so wise:
Yours is the restaurant and everything that is in it,
And, which is more, you'll be a waiter, my son!

Dear Rudyard,
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs.
You dont know the ...k's going on. That's the smart alic in me, when I'm not really at heart.
I like the sentiment expressed except fot the bigger lies bit. I tried that; it didn't work for me. Maybe that's why I haven't got the restaurant yet. Yours: Paddy
Seems like its just you and me paddy that enjoy the bastardisation of poetry!
