Seriously, what kind of losers are you guys to track down Windy’s previous work history. You really need to get your wife to give you some action form time to time.

Spiff sent us all a PM we didn’t have to track it down

I’m guessing they got it off of broker check.  Due to my age, I’m sure I have some embarrasing work history on there from college.

  I'm OK with taking jabs back and forth, but when you flat out start lying about PM's, you've crossed a line.  Knock it off.

You know. Spiff would make a good admin.



As for work history - All of those jobs are good honest work. I had a classmate (I won’t say buddy) in grad school who said he would NEVER accept a job for less than $70k a year.



You want to know why unemployment is so high? People’s pride outweighing their desire to feed their families.



In my life, I’ve worked at chic-fil-a, a car wash, Rose’s, college student center, for a general contractor as a laborer, for a painter doing odd-jobs, medical transcriptionist, UPS sorter (all before 21 - but still). Work is work. The only things you shouldn’t feel good about are dealing drugs and elected office.

Spiff - settle down, it was obviously said tongue in cheek.

Wow, knowing that the employment history is visible on broker check, I am sure glad I didn’t take the offered job at a certain “family restaurant” while in school. That would be embarassing.

  God I have no idea - and I'm not going to google it to try to get my man card back.

  Dammit.  I googled it anyways.  I should have known that - I'm from the birthplace of that chain.  I only went their once - their wings suck.  If I were going for T&A, I would go to the Tilted Kilt instead.

Man card officially revoked over the wings comment.

Daytona Beach Wings ... hard to beat!
