Some people

This time last year I would have been asleep right now. I was stuck at a dead end job - third shift at a grocery store. The store was closed overnight and for 6 of my 8 hours there my time was spent alone. One of the people I did get to see though was a delivery driver for Wonder bread. He was a cool guy, we always shot the shit when he came in. He would come in at different hours of the night (morning?) so I gave him my cell # to call when he got there so I could let him in.

He knew my job blew, I was underpaid and it was dead end so he tried to get me a job as a driver - however, I wasn't 21 at the time so for insurance purposes they couldn't hire me. Sometime around September he got a new route and we went our parting ways.

This afternoon I'm at a local deli with a friend getting lunch and my phone rings - it was the Wonder bread guy. I haven't talked to him in 7 months, so I figured it was a misdial or something. He left me a voicemail saying he was sure I was 21 now and offering me a job.

Can you believe that? After 7 months of not talking to someone, hearing from them etc. he still had my number and thought of me when they needed a new driver.

That's pretty awesome.

That's pretty amazing.

I'm glad you've made awesome friends like that.

Hope something good happens to him in return.

Also, saw this pic on reddit earlier and it reminded me of you.

He's a good guy. I owe him a Christmas card and a beer now.

Naw, I have a solid programming job now.
cushy office job with good pay > waking up at 3AM

Sounds awesome.

I bet he'd be appreciative of that.

Beer and cards are glorious.
