First 4 years, called every day at 2 o'clock, fill-in when they needed extra. No guarantees of work.
UNTIL: you got some union seniority, then call at 12 o'clock. If you wanted to work,
didn't feel like it, just don't call.
UNTIL: you got serious Union seniority, then you get to reserve events and call earlier.
One night I was talking outside the locker room with a girl during a Michael Jackson concert, the bad tour, some guy came over and asked the girl if she was okay, I said to her that looks like the lead singers brother, her answer was yes that is my brother, I thought she miss understood my statement. Yes, it was Janet. Nice girl, very quiet, her brother said to me that she talks to no one, but it was surprised she waved him off.
Got in trouble for holding a conversation with Eddie Vedder, from Pearl Jam, I didn't know who he was, just some guy from Seattle, short guy, I might add.
I love the job, one problem, I was the go to guy to break up fights because I never took it personal. It usually ended up with everybody cheering on the Rangers, rather than physically fighting. I warned them not to be the first person I ever ejected, a few people got arrested, but that never ejected anybody.
Union regulations were great, 1 minute past 11 o'clock we got the hour overtime and supper money, despite being paid to 11:30 anyway. 4 hours pay, 3 hours work for shift, if no overtime.
