My advice,...How to survive as a FinePrint Intern... My advice, act like a Commercial Fisherman.<br /><br />When there&#39;s any kind of meeting, Commercial Fishermen get their first, drink all the coffee, eat all the donuts... Interns, take note.<br /><br />Commercial Fishermen never pass a bowl of candy without filling their pockets, even breath mints... Intern take note.<br /><br />Commercial Fisherman hang out at breakfast eateries in the harbor eyeballin&#39; who leaves french fries, toast, (or a mate who&#39;s too seasick/drunk to eat - take advantage, consider it, opportunity), butter&#39;s on the house... Intern take note.<br /><br />Commercial Fishermen watch bar patrons shuffle off to the head, leaving a fresh drink; a quick pass-by-two-gulps does the trick, (move the glass &#39;cuz bartender may forget he already served the guy), learn the two gulps if you&#39;re a sippper. If desperate, take what&#39;s left in the glass s you walk out... Intern take note.<br /><br />Un-noticed or abandoned tips are fair game. (Unless the waitress is pregnant)!<br /><br />If you&#39;re really hard-up for a place for the night... pretend you&#39;re drunk - start a fight, sleep at the local harbor police station. <br /><br />All this and more from my upcoming book... DOCK LIFE!<br /><br />Haste yee back ;-)Haste yee back ;-)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00345715370509449971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-56443279634915714092009-12-17T10:49:51.872-05:002009-12-17T10:49:51.872-05:00Seems obvious, but excellent point.Seems obvious, but excellent point.Lydia Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328254761920829040noreply@blogger.com
