Today we had a regional meeting with my California colleagues. There is not a lot of turnover in my industry and we have a couple of celebrities. Can you stand the suspense? Aside from a couple of ex-professional sport jocks, my industry can brag about the following:
Yup, who would have thought that a promising career as a child actor in a star role in a famous cereal commercial from the 70's would lead to a career working in such a non-glamorous capacity.
Other little things mentioned today that made me laugh out loud were a couple of comments made at the table. Thank goddesses we had a private room.
"I took a piss of the very top of the Golden Gate Bridge. The very, very top - where you take the worker elevator where the public is not allowed. No worries. The piss dissipates into a fine mist from that altitude and does not hit the tourists below."
"Have you seen the Hillary Clinton nut cracker? She can crush nuts between her thighs -- a real ball buster."
"I had my DNA tested. A lot of it comes from angry, warring European tribes who took down the Romans. No wonder when sitting around listening to guys in sweaters and ties talking about insurance I have the uncontrollable urge to want to saw their heads off."
"Who???? Fred???? I would not piss in that asshole's mouth if his lungs were on fire."
After hearing such uncensored banter for that last 25+ years no wonder I'm so desensitized. It's a good thing I have a warped sense of humor or I would have been out of here a long, long time ago. There's something refreshing about hearing the non-politically correct version on anything and everything.
