A Hint?!


My boss just sent me the following email attachment. I don't think it is a hint but more in response to my taking a day off this summer to go see Phish and coming in 2 hours late this morning because I was "liberating" my iPod:

I think it was in a documentary about Old and In the Way (?) or maybe a New Yorker article, but I remember hearing/reading about how stressful it was for Jerry Garcia that there was this whole big group of people who depended on him for livelihoods. The pressure of the business surrounding the band and all the jobs it generated. Or maybe I'm making that up? Whatever ... here's one more Grateful Dead employment opportunity for the non-musician.
