About this episode
Imagine a lanky, lazy, fatuous 19 year old me. I wanted money. I desired wealth. But did I want a real job? No! I was the 3rd assistant manager of a record store. We actually had no employees outside of the managers. I had no one to manage and was still at the bottom of the totem pole. The record store did not pay well and most of my paycheck went to the outlet mall food court meals. I needed some extra cash. The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory was the store next door and planning to open a kiosk across town in another mall. The owner asked me if I was willing to pick up some extra holiday hours working for her selling candy apples. At the age of 19, it was hard to say no to extra holiday hours. The manager suggested I give out free samples to encourage people to buy candy apples. Six hours later. I had sold 0 apples and ate 2, then I was fired.
