I used to work at a brewery. The forman was a BARREL chested, STOUT fellow, but rubbed me against the GRAIN. He called me a LAGERhead and got HOPing mad and fired me when I charged him VAT on his weekly purchaces. I tried to file for unemployment but didn't have a CASE because of the WORT on my toe. Well, I did ALE I could do.
I did circumsicions for a while too. The pay sucked, but the tips were great!

I used to work in Chicago, in a record store. A lady came in the door and said she wanted some music. I asked her what kind she wanted. Be-bob she wanted, be-bobbed she got. I'll never work there any more.

I used to work in Chicago, in a record store.
I worked in a record store back in the 1950s. A lady came in looking for a Big Band number called ‘One Meat Ball.’ The conversation went something like this:
“Young man, do you have One Meat Ball on a ten inch?”
“No, but I have two meat balls on an eight inch.”
“Is that a record?’
“No, but it’s not bad for a fifteen year old.”
I wanted to be a porn star, but I couldn't see the fur-fest for the knees.
Mary had a little lamb and everyone was shocked.
I wanted to have a baby, but I didn't want to belabor the point.

I worked as a photographer for a spell... until I ran afoul with the law. I was charged with indecent exposure. I was framed, I tell you! Someone ran in to meter but filter up instead and they were off in a flash. You need to know the backround befote you shutter out. Thankfuly, nothing ever developed from this, save for the Detectives incident with Iris and the enlarger.

Yes I figured it out; I thought at first it was some new ‘street’ language I should know about. Now thanks to Regular Guy I have it in ten different languages which is way more information than I need.
Can we get back on the thread now?

Actually you’re the second one today to make a spectacle of themselves.
Personally I like to go into a Craft Store and ask the ladies, “Where can I get felt?”

I had to give up my job at the Firestone plant, I was just two-tyred.
or,
My bicycle mechanic background didn't help much in my new job at the Toyota dealer. Apparently I was two-tired.
?
Hey, I'm trying here.
We've done these all before, if I'm not mistaken.
I used to be a hitman but the job was a killer.
