The American fans gal manages one of those Halloween shops. She found out an employee had a panic attack because she was standing behind the bloody till and was told to engage customers and sell product, not Just laze about.

Basically, she freaked out because she was asked to do her job.

I'm all for being in touch with your emotions, being cognizant of mental health, and working on yourself, but a job is still a bloody job, and when you're not doing it, you don't play victim if the criticism is valid.

It's shit like this that makes defending the new generation difficult sometimes.

I feel like if you even want to take a seasonal job like that, you're probably someone who gets into the spirit of Halloween and would be interested in helping people find cool shit. That's definitely a job that you could easily have fun at and do the job well. It's unfortunate that the position was wasted on her instead of some drama fag kid who would make the most of it.

My wife makes her employees cry all the time. She tells them to go stand in the walk-in until they get their shit together and then get back on the line

His girl is a lovely sort, and from the sound of it, an absolute gem of a boss - Firm but fair type. Plus, she's a very creative lady, always making herself up for work in a tribute to horror films (I've seen pictures, she's fantastic at it).

I told him he found a Gosia, and that's a high compliment.

But going back to your point Abe, I agree completely. If I failed at music, I would be happy teaching it or even selling instruments, helping people find their outlet of creativity. You can't half ass something that's ultimately about having fun, and if you do that? It's all on you.

What did you do?

My father told me how one off kilter sort that he worked with randomly approached him One day and asked "Why don't you like me?" That experience always stuck with him, because he didn't even dislike the guy.
I yelled at him. Can't remember what for. He fucked something up and I went all drill sergeant.

Mine? Not at all. Gosia is practically a twig with all the dancing and stretching she does. Loves her pastries, but what Polish woman doesn't?

If you mean the American fans gal, still a no. A very pretty girl. I still like to needle the lad for landing outside his rank.

I meant the American. I would've bet the Vigoda Family Ranch on her being a portly goth chick. I'd never insinuate that you plow fatties, Ray.

I can vouch that she's Leagues ahead of most women you might see over on that side of the world. And you know me, as long as a woman has a passion for something artistic, I'm sold.

What about your Harem, Abe? WWAWD Fish-Heads nowadays? I say that lovingly, of course.
