Worst jog, working for someone else.

Best job: Night Receptionnist in a hotel, yeah just give the priviledge to be the only person working during night to a huge stoner
Worst job: Cheese Factory, first, it was fuckin disgusting, the bosses were dumb as fuck and so annoying, you'd ask for vacation or like you find someone who could trade shifts with ya, and they'll make sure it doesn't happen... Also, I had found a quite old Cheesewheel under a huge thang full of salted water, it was at least 6 months old, and rotting. We played hockey with it

Pour un instant, j'ai respiré très fort
Ça m'a permis de visiter mon corps
Des inconnus vivent en roi chez moi
Moi qui avait accepté leurs lois
J'ai perdu mon temps à gagner du temps
J'ai besoin de me trouver une histoire à me conter
Pour instant j'ai oublié mon nom
Harmonium - Pour un instant

Worst Job:
I spent 90% of my shifts walking around my neighborhood putting fliers on cars despite the fact that we were constantly understaffed when it was busy and nearly the entire staff was composed of extremely inept 16-20 year old mexican chicks who were constantly getting pregnant. In addition, I was consistently scheduled on days and at times that I would tell the manager I wasn't available (I was working 2 other jobs at the time).
Best Job:
It's what I currently do. It is hard work but, usually, the busier you are the more money you're making, so it's worth it. It's fun as hell and you meet a lot of interesting people.

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Hmmmm....been a grower my whole life so I guess I can only do pros and cons.
Pros: Nice cars, 40 acres of property here and 40 on the big island of Hawaii. Always have smoke, hash and a variety of cannabis products so to say.
All my kids are now successful growers for the family business and have houses and cars and crap (thank God no kids yet) but I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not so I'll put it in the middle.
Cons: Doing prison time in the early 90's for growing (3 fucking years in Cali, it was a big garden). People that trip when you say you're a grower, like you bring in drugs for the cartels. No retirement so I'll be growing till I die (have expensive taste). If something as simple as Mitt Romney winning a election happens I may have to go underground again.

Yeah. I don't know if I intend on doing it forever. Food service, like retail, can definitely get on your nerves.
