Quit a job in an unusual way…well there was a senior management change at my company and I found out that they were going to let me go. The night before I went in and cleared out my office. Then I drove a huge nail right thru my dress shoes into the middle of my wood desk. I put a note on the nail that said, “you’ll never be able to fill these fucking shoes” and left. Enough said….
My wife and I had a great time in Tennessee. We stayed at the Guest house at Graceland. I drove my wife crazy because I watched the Elvis 68 Comeback special multiple times. They have it on loop on the TV so it’s always on! Beale Street was amazing. The BBQ smell made me so hungry! Also Sun Records and Stax records were great tours. Thanks Mark for all the great suggestions!
I’m saving this up for my drive home to Ca. From Texas in a couple of weeks but?
At age 23 I was in management for Coit drapery 1979 the ceo sent me to a Union laundry in Chicago. The president of that company was a stuffed shirt, it was 300 employees all UNION and the kid from California was to start the non union division. That’s funny. I lasted 15 weeks living in a hotel, left my blonde snapper at home. I just looked at that prez and said fuck it. You call my ceo and tell him you’re a fucking Dick! I went to work until my replacement showed from California my co-worker. He lasted 2 weeks all because of the Dick prez.
I went back to work for the California CEO three weeks later in south central Los Angeles listening to Frazier Smith then Mark & Brian
Hey guys quick question about my upcoming Graceland trip. I kind of remember Mark saying to avoid some souvenir shops outside and he once said which stores to go to. Does old man Mark remember which ones?
