The Day Has Come To Retire My Orange Shorts

Welp. It's here.
My LAST day of work.
After working at Hooters for five years, six months, and some odd days, I am retiring my shorts and leaving my fun, easy job behind. Don't get me wrong, I worked my tail-feathers off, but I would be remiss in saying that it wasn't worth every penny.


I'm in three of those photos...can you spot me?

It's going to be crazy saying goodbye to all the friends I have made in the past three years, and all the memories I created in those damn orange shorts. I'm just happy I don't have to wear those shorts this weekend, because for the first time in years-
I won't have to work Superbowl! 

I must say, I feel bad about this years match up, though. My whole family is rooting for the Seahawks because my cousin is a scout for the team, but between living in Colorado and my girl Anna being married to Wes Welker, I'm going to have to go for the Broncos. Plus I'm pretty sure the Broncos are going to whoop up on the Seahawks, and we will see how that #1 Defense really stacks up under pressure.


Yep, I totally name dropped today, and I don't even feel bad about it. It's not like I've ever met Wes himself. I just think is wife is a badass, and I love her. Fun Fact: Anna was Miss Hooters International in 2005. She's kind of a big deal...

Now, it's time for me to go make that moneymoneymoneymon-ay, and then take the Birthday boy to Denver for Jo Koy. It's not like we should be doing anything important like packing or anything. I mean hey, we've got aaaalll the way until...shit...we have less than a week left. How the eff did that happen?

So who are you rooting for?

  1. Okay so I'm guessing you're the one on the bottom left picture? :) Are you referring to Jo Koy the comedian? If you are, I wanted to let you know that I LOVE him!

    A former student of my moms and former hooters girl is married to Kellen Davis of the seahawks but we're pulling for the Broncos, Brandon is a huge Manning fan...and John Fox was our Panthers coach..apparently Denver is working out pretty good for him

  12. Way to go! I think it's hard to leave any job, especially if you like the job. I'm not rooting for anyone because I don't watch football. I generally only watch the commercials. :)
    Enjoy your last day of work and the weekend!
