That's My Humble Job

 ‘Straighten my socks, slave!’

‘Yes, mistress. At once, pretty mistress madam.

That’s my humble job, for I am a public socks adjuster. This is all I do, day in and day out; 365 days a year – so that my superior customers don’t have to lean down and pull up their own socks!

I respectfully handle the pretty customer-mistress's right sock on her shapely ankle

I pull it up as best I can

Followed by her left sock

I can only hope and pray that the socks are now even at the tops...

...though I can see that some creases remain (I didn't say that I was any good at my humble job!)

My fate is very much in the hands of these socks!

I can literally feel their power over me!

My back is sore from being bent over all day long

But I must focus on the SOCK - not my PAIN!

The customer doesn't give a damn about my PAIN!

She inspects her socks after I have finished straightening them

All I can do is nervously await her socks' judgment!

Mercifully, it seems they are satisfied, as they silently turn their backs on me and walk away

I know they aren't perfect, and so does their wearer

But she is nothing if not a sweet and merciful customer-mistress!

Her socks will do!

For now, at least!
