I bet a lot of us would be interested in hearing about "the nadir of your career." Spill it! 😂

At BB: I had a guy as a host who was pretty great at juggling tables and handling reservations.

Tom/Juno had a meeting with me one day about him. "We don't like how that guy looks on the door. Fire that guy and get a really hot chick!"

I didn't fire him, I sold him on another job.

I hired a woman who was super hot, who also had a part time job as a stripper. I'm not shaming her for stripping, that was just another job she had. She thought I didn't know she also stripped. I knew. She made one part of my job much easier because she was hot.

What possible reason could I have to be mad? I’m never in Oakland anymore, and there’s plenty of adequate Mexican food around.

For you to be able to consolidate the worst occupational experience of your life into a 24-hour experience at Oakland Mad Mex, I was really hoping there was some juicy stuff behind it. Alas, my hopes were misplaced.

Never said I worked at Mad Mex Oakland. No story. Just a garbage company.

If it’s any consolation, I had Taco Bell value menu last night for dinner, and it was awesome.
