Grandy's... Same thing. Worked there for 2 years and decided I was getting no where! The only positive was that the family cat LOVED to stick her head in my work boots when I got home at night. Smelled like chicken grease...
If you call that a positive, go for it. "rlol"

Hey I didnt say I LIKED it... ut for some weird reson she loved it. It was like catnip. She would roll around in my boots and then flip and just wiggle around. First time she did it I thought she was having a siezure!

It got robbed one night at closing-- I promptly resigned.
For about 6 months I ran a Tilt video games center. I had to deposit 2000+ dollars in quarters every night. There were bagged in bags of $500. I figured that if someone tried to rob me they wouldn't get very far very fast cause those suckers WERE HEAVY!!!
