Not a person was stirring, not even my spouse,

The books were spread out all over my desk,

As I was cramming for my Contractor's test.

The cat was nestled all snug by my feet,

While I  unfortunately was glued to my seat,

My family was all cozy and warm in bed,

While I was studying.....something I dread.

I glanced at the TV with thoughts of turning it out,

Then I saw an ad for Cam Tech....What's that about?

Away from my desk, I flew like a flash,

I flew up my arms, my head I wanted to bash!

It finally occurred to me what I should've done.

Came dawn, I immediately dialed the phone.

When what to wandering ears did I hear?

I still have time for Cam Tech classes this year!

I sent in my registration and included my check,

I knew in a moment I could depend on Cam Tech!

I attended the classes and used my Course Book!

I knew Cam Tech was the best, after just one look.

Now Cam, Rita, Ron, Kathy, Patti, Tim, Joe T. and more,

And Joe D., Todd  and Angie in the Bookstore,

They topped my list, never to fall,

If you want to pass the Exam the first time,  give Cam Tech a call!

After searching for minority-led firms to work on projects for another company and not finding any, she decided to open her own business.   The Philadelphia Inquirer
