Yes. A full time job at that. I guess it is possible.

     Yes, I have. I didn't spend my spare time watching meaningless D-III college football games though. That may have something to do with it.

I would assume this was common practice.

Yes, I despised my last job so much that I was looking for a new job within 3 months of being hired.

Bushie seems to believe it is not possible. That's why he won't get a part time job while he looks for a full time one that pays enough for him.

Doing so as we speak.

I actually talked to a recruiter earlier this week but the job was in question was a contract position that didn't pay that well and he wouldn't offer a lot of specifics. It seemed like the sort of job that Jeff would accept...so I ran the opposite direction as fast as I could.

So no Indy Texas Update spinoff just yet. I'm still negotiating with the producers regarding creative control and merchandise royalties.

No, but I've never really had a "job."

Yes, and my managers knew it. They had brought in a new superstar manager who was a "firecracker" that we found out about via LinkedIn ... not because they had the courtesy to tell us. She came into the company like a bull in a china shop, and after her third day, I told them I'd be looking elsewhere.

I don't know if they thought I was bluffing or just emotional, but -- in retrospect -- they were very courteous to keep me on board. Two weeks later I gave my notice.

Their new superstar was let go within six months for driving the organization into the ground.
