i have decided...

Post by z-parrothead »

i am willing to try to make a living out of listening to Buffett songs and/or posting to BN.
I do it everyday anyway, so may as well go ahead and make a living doing it.

I know what you're thinking...you're thinking :o WOW :o ..this guy is willing to make that kind of sacrifice for ME?.....yes..I am just that kinda guy 8)

now I just need to assemble a staff...and some kind of pay system....and a VACATION schedule!!!

Ok, I get on BNews wayyyy toooo much at work. We are told that big brother can watch our every move but people have done much worse than be a JB addict so I'll take my chances.
I still must work to provide for concerts, vacations and oh ya, college for the phlock but I could maybe join your staff of parrotheads.
BTW, we listened to all our Buffett music Sat and Sun. By Sunday night our girls were begging us to please turn something else on. So we listened to the Beatles. :lol:

If you need a partner- let a guy know! Days of snow and cold in the Midwest are really starting to get me down. Would rather sit, listen and dream may way to a living!

oooh, UPPER MANAGEMENT...don't think I could handle that, I've been a peon for so long. I'll work on my sales pitch, I think I can convince hubby...he'd be willing to go from Raleigh to the coast for me, he could just transfer down there. SoILPrtHed, I hear ya on the long winter! I live about a block from Lake Ontario and over the past two days the snow has hammered us!

If you have uttered the words "I want to go where it's warm"...or..."I wanna go where there aint any snow", your application for top level employeement is already in 8)

Today we are filling the position for "keep an eye on the palm tree outside the tiki bar".
I have personally applied for that position, but I know there are others much more qualified than me.

You know, its not that we have gotten a lot. My father is up by Lake Michigan and they have gotten hammered too, but it just seems like we are constantly getting a little snow/ice, wind and cold temps- with no let up in sight. Enough of this- bring on the bikinis, guitars and tiki bars!!!

How about if I tell you that "This morning I shot six holes in my freezer"? What will that get me?

The ski area closest to my house, Wolf Creek, has gotten 41 feet of snow this winter. Yes, feet.

Give me a lounge chair, a cooler of Lager, Sirius 31 and I am your man for that job or any other!

My idea of the perfect office and job- beach, temps in the 80s, palm trees to the left and right, beach lounger covered with tiki hut, tiki bar within reaching distance to the right, Sirius 31 within reaching distance to the left. Job Title- watching the waves, birds, trees and feeling the breeze. Job Hours- Anytime in the morning to anytime in the evening!
