It was the worst thing in the world.
Im sure he paid me minimum wage...I was holed up in the conference room for hours at a time...and he wouldnt let me turn on the TV or a radio or anything. AND he wouldnt let me park for free at the office, so I had to go in at seven with him and leave at 7 when he did. It was awful. I feel sorry for his employees. He's a great dad, but I have the feeling he is a boss-zilla.

OMG Gryphon, I did something similar once. My very first volunteer experience we stuffed envelopes and that included sealing them.  :yes: They gave us sponges w/water, but they'd get to soggy and I'd have to start over OR part of the sponge would start to break away and I'd have to start over, so I just licked them too...
Bleech!

Henry, I love the movie Tombstone too. "I'm your Huckleberry".  :biggrin:  Which is a great line, but I have to admit that ... I don't get it. The "huckleberry" reference. I know what he means, but how does huckleberries relate to that?

The Rockies are beautiful. I grew up thinking the Appalachians were the most beautiful mountains in the world, then I visited the Adirondacks and decided they were equally beautiful and well now..I'm sure we have 3 beautiful mountain ranges in the U.S.

I'd like to visit the Alps, Balkan Mountains, Caucasus..on and on...I think I like mountains as much as I do water.

I always wondered exactly what that meant, but it was a very cool line...

When I saw that movie in the theater...when Kurt Russell was standing in the train depot and tells Clanton..

"The Cowboys are finished, you understand? I see a red sash, I kill the man wearin' it!..You tell 'em I'M coming... and hell's coming with me, you hear?... Hell's coming with me!".....at that point, I completly forgot where I was, and said, (at a very loud tone)...YESSS!!!....and my wife, slid down in her seat and squeezed my arm...extremely hard, and brought me back to reality....the people behind me began to laugh at me... :redface:...but, WOW, that was an awsome moment in cinema history for me.. :biggrin:
