Yeah it was, I enjoyed working for them, I did ok while I was there.
Made more then I would have if I were paid just minimums as the business was pretty brisk, but only because of tips. No deliveries, no money.
I don’t carry but I do Judo. I’m about 5’5’’ 140, so I’m used to punks throwing their weight around.
Heck I hated the folks I worked with far more then the customers. They backstabbed me and were the reason I left. I liked that job, it paid for my school.
One period when I was doing it, was when I lived in South Minneapolis and was partying hard every night, I could work Friday and Saturday nights only and still make enough to live on while being able to party every day of the week and after midnight on those two nights that I worked,it was almost like not working at all.
