Jobs

•Cutco
•Construction
•Dishwasher in Italian Restaurant on Santa Monica
•Domino's Pizza in Newington, CT
•Jonathan's Restaurant on UConn campus

My first job was at Jonathan's, the campus restaurant.

theangel — Johnathan is such an underwhelming name. Feels so normal.
eted — Oh that's neat. I think the building that Jonathan's was in is now the South Campus Dining Hall? I've gone there a few times. UConn has changed quite a bit even in the 2 and some odd years I've been here.
theangel — I think that's where my friend had his first job too, actually.
Rivers — I used to get in trouble because I wore jeans to work. Also, I once accidentally mixed ammonia and bleach and poisoned the entire restaurant.

My dad's nicknames for people and things

My dad has a fantastic ability to give people and things alternate nicknames.

Alternative Words:
• Crocodile: "coocoodrill" • Drums: "da blams"
• Piano: "pinano"
• Tissue: "hornblowers"
• Slippers: "slinkers"
• Peanut Butter: "peenter bunter"
• Sandwich: "sanguiladoche"

Family Nicknames:
• His son Shannon: "Bones da stickman"
• My uncle Michael: "Ralphie"
• My aunt Joanne: "Dodo"
• My mom: "Choofie" and "Magenta"
• Me: "Weezer" he said it's after the kid (Wheezer) from the Little Rascals, because he was the cool one; and sometimes, "Botch" - the latter because the sound made me laugh as a baby
