Well, first job was paper route on Lido Island
Fair enough. I’ve drank and done more drugs than most, and so far anyway lived to tell the tales. I‘m a good small boat sailor, and make a good grinder on The big ones. I can strum a guitar, used to be more capable as a youngster. I want to learn the cello when I’m done with work. I’m no real estate expert but I knew to snap up a deal on Our home in Long Beach about 18 months after sandy, it’s worth about 60% more now. Bought a fire sale half acre Lot in 2020 in Hacienda Iguana that I could probably flip tomorrow for a 50-100% gain. So, mostly luck but I do know a little about real estate

I can neither sew nor understand a thing about cricket despite multiple Bajan attempts to teach me. So I guess we call a draw
Interesting how many had a paper route as their first job. Today's kids won't even know what that is.Paper route in grade school. We got an "invoice" and at the end of the month and had to pay for the # of subscribers, and they always gave me about 3 extra, so $ came out of pocket every month regardless of how many times I told them. So my exit - for about 2 months I only delivered to the customers who would complain (handful of over 60 subscribers). It took about 20 minutes a day instead of a few hours. Then I collected from everyone and quit. That job sucked.
Then a banquet serving job at 14. Min wage was 4.75 and I was making $8/hr or about $200 each weekend, free meals with good food. That was a great job.
Vinyl cover and scoop nose. A classic! Such a good board but so damn slippery with a wetsuit.Saved my first 2 checks to buy a Turbo XLR8
Yes, but you ain’t seen nothin til you’ve seen my headstand to full wheel sequenceYeah,...but can you deadlift?
So you didn't work at the Vicente location and never got to know Glenn?First job (not working for my folks) was in the wetsuit department at Wise surfboards.
Never did make it downstairs. Sold a lot of wetsuits in 2005/6.
Pretty chill job except for when you'd have to turn sweaty wetsuits right side out.
Paper route was my second job, but, yeah, it’s not a kids job anymoreInteresting how many had a paper route as their first job. Today's kids won't even know what that is.
