My job….
Ok…So those of you who know me, know what I do for a living. For those that don’t, I sell mattresses.
Sounds boring, but it’s actually pretty fun. I basically get paid to do a whole lot of nothing. Even most of the “work” I do, isn’t really hard…A customer comes in, and I get to talk to them for anywhere between 1 and 90 minutes, and hopefully the end of the conversation goes something like, “Your bed will be delivered between X and X, thank you for shopping with us today!”
The job also comes with great perks, like vendor sponsored outings. We usually go bowling, because the alley we go to has all you can bowl on Sundays between 9 and midnight.
Simmons took us last night, and paid for our bowling, food, and drinks. Unlimited, which means that many people take advantage of the unlimited drinks. This makes for a great photo op, such as this one that I got. I swear to God, that I was asked to take this picture with this phrase…
“Jess! Come take a picture of me and Nick comparing our balls.” Think about it for a minute, but someone sober would probably THINK about what they would say before they did it..lol
Steve (Right) and Nick (Right)
Ok, and about Nick….Do you see the face he’s making? That is the way it looks ALL THE TIME. It’s not that it’s a bad picture where he’s making a dumb face…That’s just how he looks…He can’t help it.
So yeah, we have good times here.

Love the picutre. I will have to show my brother the picture and say “hey you want to check out someone comparing their balls”? He’ll crack up and then call ME a pervert.

Also, another employee I showed this to pointed out some other funny things going on in this picture…..
Not sure if you’ll think they’re as funny as we do but..
in the background, the guy to the left, has a beard….We don’t allow that in our dress code regulations.
The girl in the middle is drinking beer…And she’s 19 years old.
Dean, the one with his back turned isn’t talking to someone else, he’s just ignoring us…lol
