Les Savy Four (from Jenell)

FOUR JOBS I’VE HAD:

  • Stocking frozen peas and whipping 1-quart packages of dented Polar Pak ice cream against the walls of the freezer and yelling “damaged!” at the top of my lungs.
  • Riding a bike up and down the Mississippi River in the Twin Cities at tax payer’s expense. Twice.
  • Answering hundreds of e-mails per day from all kinds of idiots who shouldn’t ever be allowed to so much as touch a computer, and doing so with all the fake politeness and sincerity I could muster.
  • Slinging a yo-yo on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago for the spare change and kindness of strangers.
