Namo, enough with the back and forth private conversations.

I've never seen anyone who needed to hear "practice what you preach" as much as you do.

Rath, it isnt everyday you find out that someone you know started in porn the same way you did...

7-11's only perk was the dirty magazines and the truckers flirting with me.

the deli was a disgusting eye-opener.

Doodle, don't talk to me. Back and forth private conversations are for Namo only.

I worked at a local music store... Actually it was a music store/ organic food store/ piano tuning company/ luthier shop. Four separate businesses in one small building was very interesting.

Okay, I was going to tell you about how my 7-11 career paved MY way as a fluffer...
it was for pillows at JC Penny's, but the story is still fascinating.

I worked in a retail store at Plaza las Americas in Puerto Rico when I was 14. Did it till I graduated Highschool at 18. Then I worked at the box offic at NYU for two years. After that I was a Radio City Tour guide / usher until I started a internship at the Susan Smith talent agency. Those years were fun.

Yes doodle, I also had to fluff the linens on "Kansas City Trucking Co."

Namo..I did thank You when I won fluffer of the year...Don't you remember my speech? "I would like to thank Namo Channing for teaching me his best techniques...I would never be here without him nurchering me in this crazy business". I will always be grateful to you.

I worked as the administrative assistant at my town's local public access station. It was the best job ever.

I was a church pianist. I liked to play "Abide With Me" as if it was the end of the Gypsy overture.

I worked at a discount dry cleaner in Boca Raton (the retirement capital of the world). You can't even imagine the things we found in pockets or the stains that people had no shame in bringing to us. It was the nastiest job ever!

My first job with an official paycheck was as a studio singer for these recordings that accompanied music books. I did that from age 12 to 15.

My first job was working at Sears in the children's department. I worked there for three summers and it was the most boring job EVER!!!!!

I was the assistant to the director of the rare books library at my college. It was so much fun. I got to pull things from the archives, spend time in the rare books stacks, and plan exhibits. Ultimately it's what made me decide to go to library school.

Concession stand worker at a local pool. Not fun having little brats yelling at you claiming that is their pizzs even though there are four people waiting in front of them.

And whenever it wasnt crowded I got sent home. It sucked
