Confessions Of An Oompa Loompa
I was born to be an Oompa Loompa! I had so much fun working in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory! And, naturally, I thought that (as one of Mr. Wonka's famed employees), I would have had the liberty of dipping into as many gum-drops, gummy bears, jelly beans, and lollipops as I pleased! Why wouldn’t I?

Confessions Of An Oompa Loompa
My Chocolate Career
I use to be
a hard-working
Oompa Loompa,
in Willy Wonka's
Factory,
Until the day
that I got fired,
due to my job
performance
being unsatisfactory!
Sealing My Fate
Willy Wonka noticed
that his candy
was disappearing,
at an ever
alarming rate;
Then, when he saw
the chocolate running
down my mouth,
that sort of
sealed my fate.
Willy Wonka
Yes, I ate some
of Willy Wonka's
precious candy,
but I meant
no lasting harm;
Peculiar how missing
a few gumdrops,
here and there,
made stingy, Mr. Wonka lose
all of his charismatic charm!
All You Can Eat
Never would I have become
an Oompa Loompa,
if I had known that
the candy would not
have been "all you can eat";
After all, I dyed my skin
permanently green,
anticipating the ongoing
rewards, of shoveling down
my throat, treat after treat!
Santa Claus
Now that I am no longer
an Oompa Loompa,
but still fashion
the color of a bright,
fluorescent, green,
A frolicsome elf,
will be my next career move,
since Santa Claus
has lots of candy, (fresh in stock!),
from what I have peeked in,
and clearly seen!

Confessions From An Oompa Loompa
Now that I am permanently holographic lime-green, I will see you all during the Christmas season as an elf. I will make my rounds to each of your houses, and help myself to all of your candy canes which decorate your beautiful Christmas trees. If you have any chocolate laying around, it will be mine, too. Merry Christmas!
Oompa Loompa!
Do you think Willy Wonka’s employees should be allowed all-you-can-eat treats?

AUTHORNatalie, indeed! I am glad I quit my job as an Oompa Loompa! They didn’t even provide Dental Insurance, and with all the chocolate I was able to get my hands on, I definitely needed dental protection!
Your visit is always a sweet pleasure :-)

And he's so very wealthy, having earned his money on the backs of the poor Oompah Loompahs who have to work so very hard. Certainly with all the candy he makes, or rather they make, he could spare enough for a staff of Oompah Loompahs - what other benefits do they get? What other benefits would they possibly want? Not to mention they have to deal with some very naughty children whenever they get out of hand - I would imagine this isn't even in their job description!

My wife will love this one. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is one of her favorites. I was hoping you still had some connections to all that delicious candy. You made my mouth water. Another great way to start the day. Funny.

Flourish, Yes! Exactly! And, besides, Mr. Wonka valued his chocolate as much as I valued it :-( (LOL)
I wouldn’t make it as an employee in a chocolate factory. Very low production from sampling the goodies.
