Whenever a job application ask me what talents I have, I really have to hold back from telling them that I know all the words to every song from the Wu-Tang Forever album. One day that’s going to be a recognized talent. I can play Contra really good, that needs to be approved. I can get an extra couple of cheese sticks when I order six. That’s a talent too that has a tasty reward if marinara sauce is involved. I got another talent, I can eat a cheese stick without marinara sauce. Regardless of what my work resume looks like, Keith Jardine’s is infinitely better. Check out what the Dean of Mean said in this interview with The Daily Telegraph.
“I’ve been a personal trainer, a wild land firefighter, a football coach, a miner, and – for two months to help out a buddy – a bounty hunter,
I like to experience different things in life, and if you look at all those jobs, one thing they have in common is they all entail hard work. I take a pride in being a hard worker.
People ask me what is more dangerous or scary, being a UFC fighter or a bounty-hunter – but the scariest job I’ve ever done is mining.
That was a very dangerous experience. It wasn’t an operational mine, but it was climbing up and down ladders that go straight down the shaft a couple of thousand feet and the ladders were all old and breaking – that was easily the most dangerous job I ever had.
You would climb on to the ladder and hope the next few minutes went well…”
