Threw Tires and Batteries at Sears Automotive. Worked in aluminum processing plant. Hot as balls. They throw you out if you didn't show up to work with a gallon of water. Construction. Various fast food.

 

College, I unloaded the 45-foot trailer they backed up to Hardee's every Sunday morning at oh-dark-thirty. At least I can work alone and it beat flipping burgers. Same time, I threw kegs at our College bar. They only have four types of draft beer and nothing else. And crowds well into the upper hundreds. Literally threw kegs for about 6 hours straight.

 

All seems pretty damn pointless now.

messageboards in the old days was mostly IT people.

 

some of us have been in it for a LONG time.

 

Pat, strike and I, have all been in for 15 plus years I am guessing. That's hardly a fad. (21 for me)

 

you seem to think I lie about myself on here. I am not sure why. I don't think there has never been a more honest/transparent person on this board. To a fault.

I didn’t single anyone out! I make sweeping generalizations.

You've singled me out before, calling me a liar, or saying I make sh1t up

[tanatastic 2,061]

That time I also admitted I had made a mistake and had misread a post I thought was a smoking gun. Any other time is just lumping you in a sweeping category for comedy sake and not personal.

 

If Im gonna call someone out, Ill do it by name. If theres no name its just trolling.

Pizza delivery, baskin robbins, gas station attendant, US Navy, waiter, bar tender, car sales, sales rep (current gig).

 

Have worked since 15. Bought my first car. Pretty much never had anything handed to me by family or others. Have almost never been unemployed (couple weeks here and there I suppose). Even in the depths of my depravity, drinking like a fish and tweeking and not sleeping for days, I still held down a job. I slung dope the whole time too. Even dealt a little meth and acid while in the navy. Knew peeps off base and brought it on base to take and sell. Still maintained 4.0 evals and got the honorable discharge!

 

I'm the text book definition of a H-U-S-T-L-E-R

I don't know what it means to throw kegs

Usually kegs are prefilled. He is talking about bringing up a fresh one and taking the empty one to the back.

how many internships Miss Fussy Britches?

[naomi 343]

Makes sense. At first I thought a "keg" was a barrel, and then I thought it was a pitcher, and now I realize it's a barrel (again) and that I should maybe get my head checked out.

[naomi 343]

That would make a great handle.

 

Two. One unpaid (required for degree), one paid.
