JK...I d...*sigh* Trying not to hate you right now.<br /><br />JK...I did the Burger King thing when I was 14. Yep. No pockets. Plus a dorky hat. I didn't eat Burger King food for about a year.

My summer jobs were varied as well. One sum...Neato! My summer jobs were varied as well. One summer I ran a waste wood chipper (before OSHA) It took several hours to regain my hearing every day because nobody thought ear protectors were necessary. Advantages: none. Disadvantages-see above.<br />Then it was swing shift in a place that processed sea moss from all over the world to make carrageenan (a suspension agent used in tons of stuff.) Advantages-tons of overtime. Disadvantages-worked crazy hours and different shifts every week which burned me out and wiped out any chance of a summer social life.<br />Then I lucked out and got hired by the State of Maine as a bridge painter. This job lasted two summers and after I fell off the bridge, they made me the boat man who waited for someone else to fall off. Advantages: I got to get a wicked tan, read books and watch girls walk across the bridge.Berekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14172936893264053007noreply@blogger.com
