Anything wrong?

Mary, John's boss, wanted to fire John because he was always late for work. John decided to mend his ways, but unfortunately the next morning  his alarm clock didn't work, so he was late again. He ran to work, had neither eye for the horses that ran in the field nor for the children that ran in the playground. Fortunately Mary ran to her second appointment at the office, so she hadn't noticed John was late again. John relaxed and was about to tell his colleague a dirty joke when Mary entered, so he ran back to his workplace. Because he hadn't drunk any coffee yet, he ran to the coffee machine in the coffee break to be the first in line.
