Oceangurl's brother might want to work on the place.

My own brother might want to work on the place.
The first two are local—from the mainland. The latter, far from it—Santa Fe.
Those of you who are asking about The Man From the Dump, sorry girls. The Man from the Dump is an Islander, and thus by definition both unreliable and expensive. A worse combination I can't imagine. Off island workers, by contrast, are usually eager to get the job done and go the heck home. Especially in those shoulder seasons on the Island when there are no girls and no restaurants and the wind never stops blowing and the boat doesn't run and there's basically nothing to do but work and drink. Plus would I rather pay somebody's brother or a stranger?
And, oh yes, Oceangurl's brother doesn't drink and neither does mine. Let's see how it times out.
I thought your Bro drank beer. No? Very good. So, like, which bro is cuter?
ReplyDeleteWhy not hire both?
My bro drinks N/A beer.
ReplyDeleteMy brother does in fact drink beer, but never on the job. He quotes a lot of poetry and Saul Bellow while he works though. He can also tell you every car that Steve McQueen drove in every movie.
ReplyDeleteThat's Jersey Girl's bro who's the Bellow fan, btw.
