I’ve worked at all sorts of jobs in my lifetime, but none remotely related to the mechanisms of the mind. I was a lifeguard in Ireland, a production line worker in Amsterdam, and a janitor in Denmark. I was a fisherman in the Holy Land and a drummer in a rock band called, Bill’s Board Stiff. When I arrived in New York City, I got a job as a plasterer’s mate on a building site on Long Island. The loose translation in layman’s terms for a job like that… a human cement mixer. From there, I graduated to banging nails, and slowly, after weaving my way through ne’er-do-wells, mamelukes, biker bullies, the bloods and the crips, and all other indigenous reprobates specific to the construction industry, I arrived out the other end, not at all unlike a bowel movement… a sub-contractor. I worked in New York City for thirty-five years and enjoyed every minute of it.
I’m retired now and living in Ireland doing what I love best; painting and writing. I go back to New York from time to time. It will always be a part of me. It’s my second home. ver menos
