Back again? Don't you have anything better to do??? Just kidding, of course. If you know me, you know I kid. Well, I got a memo this morning on my stack of newspapers to sell (yes, I DID get the memo) that instructed me to see my boss, Dave @ the Key West Citizen after 10 a.m. So I go there after having sold 3 newspapers and he informed me that the Citizen can't pay me 5.00 dollars (bonus pay) a day for selling 1 or 2 papers, turning in .50 cents. Which I totally understand that they are losing money and I'm not even good at math and even I can figure that one out. So he gave me another week and if I can't sell 25 or more papers I have to ship out. He told me every time he drove by me, he saw me sitting down. I told him it was a coincidence and that I walk up and down with blank stares and people scrambling for their phone instead of .50 cents to buy a paper. My counterpart kiddie corner to me (not kidding) sells twice as much as I do. I don't know what else to do. So I wrote a song. Want to hear it? O.K. Here it goes.
