I'm a crazy liberal who likes talking about politics, sports and the human condition. I drink good beer, expensive scotch, cheap gin, and delicious bourbon. I am an adult that donates to XPN and NPR. I constantly do crossword puzzles on my phone. I work too hard too often, and some people tell me i'm "sweet." I dont know what the hell they're talking about.

Currently, I get paid money to sell craft beer throughout Philadelphia. There are worse jobs.

Years ago, I taught a variety of subjects to special education students, as well as coached high school wrestling. But the commute was unbearable, and it kinda didn't pay enough.

So, I became a general manager at a rad beer bar in South Philly. It was a great experience, but it ate at the last vestiges of my soul. I had an existential experience, quit my job, moved to Puerto Rico, had a cathartic experience, and immediately came back to Philadelphia. I regret nothing.

I then briefly coached high school wrestling in town, but it predictably did not pay most (any) of the bills. So I went on to become a big, important food and beverage manager at a fancy pants hotel in Center City. It was awful. So now I have the best job I've ever had.
