Saturday 9
Work Hard, Play Harder
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
Saturday 9: Work Hard, Play Harder (2009)
Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
1) We're celebrating the last holiday of summer by going country. Who is your favorite country music artist?
2) Gretchen Wilson sings that on Tuesdays, she gets up before dawn. This morning, did you awaken on your own, or did you need an alarm clock?
I set my alarm during the work week. On Saturdays I sleep in.
3) She tells us that she doesn't waste her time on manicures or spay tans. How about you? Have you recently spent any money at the salon?
Since this Monday is Labor Day, the holiday established to celebrate the American worker …
7) Approx. 10% of Americans are self employed. Have you ever been your own boss?

No, but I need to.

Summer jobs when I was in college. I spent two summers working at a state park and one on the assembly line at Estee Lauder.
5) Gretchen Wilson says she is a big fan of McDonald's and tries to eat there once a day when she's on tour. In terms of sales, America's 3 most popular fast-food lunch destinations are McDonald's, Starbucks and Subway. If you could choose a gift card to one of those three, which would you select?

NOT Starbucks. McDonald's is a guilty pleasure, Subway is for when I want something a bit healthier.

They say people don't leave bad jobs, they leave bad bosses. And I have had some really bad bosses.
9) Farmers feel the impact of extreme weather events. Have you ever had a job that required you to be outdoors most of the time?

The aforementioned summer job at the state park. I spent most of my time picking up litter.
I imagine Estee Lauder had the best-smelling assembly line of all time.
ReplyDeleteYes and no.
DeleteThe plant I was in was a packaging facility. No air conditioning. Height of summer. To this day Youth Dew makes me queasy...
I like Rascal Flatts...haven't heard anything from them recently, though. "I Miss Mayberry" is my favorite of their songs.
ReplyDeleteActual this summer hasn't been all hot, her in North Idaho a few days in upper 90's.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of Starbucks either. But then again, I don't drink coffee at all.
