That goes without saying for any job you get-if the man's willin' to buy your time. $tatus doesn't count here; I've held positions from highest to lowest; golf-course caddy to real estate appraiser, to Fed. housing Lt. to owning an eighteen-wheeler and never been late or missed a day in 51 years (knock on wood-weather permitting) On three occasions, the bosses have even given me the day-off with PAY! just for being the most reliable S.O.B! The boss's madness has method: The kids, usually one-third my age and a little slack, get the point. I'm essentially a 'fire and forget': the current boss ( I haven't actually seen one in 13 years) sends me out by phone and doesn't have to wonder if it'll get done. The old Boy Scout ethos at work BBY! ATTN Rockstar; I hope that's not Auto Zone I get called out to those ....after they've been robbed! Keep the cash tills with minimum amounts at all times and big ad posters on the front windows.
