time to lean
back in the early 90's (i don't remember the exact year - the decade was kind of a blur for me) i needed a job. it was back in the early 90's which was a time when jobs were scarce and didn't pay well (unlike now). anyway, i went to work at Burger King. you would think that it was painful, and it was! even more so because i was a manager and would seriously have to say things to people like "TIME TO LEAN, TIME TO CLEAN" without laughing.
also, at Burger King they FLAME BROIL the hamburgers. they do this with a broiler, or what i liked to call "the stinky meat machine". every night it was like completely dismantled and cleaned overnight by maintenance, and being a manager, i had to be trained in it. words cannot describe the SMELL that comes from a Burger King Broiler at the end of the day. I don't eat their hamburgers very often anymore.
i quit that job before i got fired. i wasn't a very good team leader, plus i was having sex with one of the crew members, plus it just seemed like a good time to get the hell out of dodge city and move to California. forever. forever was 2 and a half months of drinking Mad Dog 20/20 on the streets of Oakland and Berkeley before driving back to New Hampshire to move in with my parents again.
the point of this story is now i have time to lean!
also, i like music a lot. i was never very good at stealing it, but here's some advice if you'd like to. may i suggest the new Mark Eitzel record? it's very good - i got it yesterday.
