And I Thought The Workday Sucked
Sometimes the ride home is worse
During the Spring of 2012, a close friend of mine got me and another good friend of ours, who we will refer to from here on out as Rizzo, a job laboring for a company that installed solar panels to commercial buildings.
The particular project we were hired for was an incredibly large warehouse and it would take a crew of ten guys or so the entire spring and summer to complete. I guess we should have taken it as a sign of things to come when Rizzo and I were pulled over by the New Jersey State Police for making an illegal U-Turn on our way to our first day of work, five minutes before our shift started, two minutes away from the job. Thankfully we explained the situation to the officer and were let off with a warning.
We fit in pretty well at the company, showed up on time and worked hard. Eventually, it was brought to our attention that more workers were needed and we were asked if we knew anyone looking for work. The result was me bringing in two of my cousins and a few other good friends who were eventually hired. The result of that, be it good bad or indifferent, was ten guys who knew each other way too well, many of whom spent most of the workday high in one form or another, having more fun then you’re probably supposed to at work.
