11. My husband just reminisced about his college job -
working to maintain large milk delivery trucks in winter. This included crawling under a truck dripping icy, salty slush and snow to wrestle with bolts to replace the springs.

8. I know someone who does that just to make ends meet.
She has a regular job, but it does not pay enough. She does the kennel job evenings and weekends just to pay her bills. She is in her fifties, and not upwardly mobile careerwise. Does Boner understand about people like that?

And, he never had anyone tell him he was too lazy to want to work--after having done that job for the past two summers.
