JSngry Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Yeah, my 18 year old son has been selected as one of the "experienced" Fry's staff to assist with the opening of the new store in Fishers, Indiana. He'll be there this Thursday through next Tuesday, Stop in and buy some stuff, meet the boy, and let him know he's got the eyes of a village watching him. Quote
JSngry Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Posted April 7, 2005 Oh yeah - Charlie will be working in the software department. He says to ask y'all to buy some stuff that's NOT on sale. Quote

JSngry Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Posted April 7, 2005 Cool, Mark! I got my days slightly crossed - he gets there today, but won't start working until tomorrow. And remember, try to buy some stuff that's NOT on sale. Quote

ghost of miles Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 (edited) Boy, is Charlie in for a surprise... Edited April 7, 2005 by ghost of miles Quote
sheldonm Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Boy, is Charlie in for a surprise... I wish he were there now, I'll be in the neighborhood in a couple hours! It's close by so so big deal! Quote
JSngry Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Posted April 7, 2005 "a surprise"? Hmmmm.... Just hope it doesn't involve ransom. The shape he left his room in, I don't know that I'd be too eager to pay right now... Quote

ghost of miles Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 "a surprise"? Hmmmm.... ... when he finds out that "Uncle Chuck's" rap about "small-headed Hoosiers" is a crazy Michigan myth! Quote
ghost of miles Posted April 7, 2005 Report Posted April 7, 2005 Memo/aside to sheldonm: If, by some chance, the joint does happen to be filled with small-headed Hoosiers, let me know and I'll drive up pronto. I have a large head and can use it to block Charlie's view. Quote
JSngry Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Posted April 7, 2005 Well now, my son ain't exactly micro-cranial his ownself neither... Quote
rachel Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Is Charlie being chaperoned?? (those Fishers' girls....not exactly the innocent midwestern girls you'd imagine... ) Does he have his fake ID ready? (Joey D. is coming to town next week--he could stay a few days extra, couldn't he?) OK... now I know why I don't have children... Quote

Ron S Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 OK... now I know why I don't have children... Then who's the adorable kid in the photo? Quote
rachel Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 (edited) I was thinking he might enjoy The Ugly Monkey. You know, 'every night is ladies night at the Ugly Monkey...' Of course there're always the Broad Ripple joints. Those Butler girls.... Edited April 8, 2005 by rachel Quote
rachel Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 OK... now I know why I don't have children...  Then who's the adorable kid in the photo? Oh, Avatar Jennifer is my little pal. She's the daughter of good friends of mine. She calls me Ra-Ra, and I get to spoil her like mad and give her back to Mom and Dad.... Quote

OK... now I know why I don't have children... No chaperones, as far as I can tell. This is a business trip, pure and simple. Most of thte other guys from his store are in their early/mid 20s. However - he's only 18, and is spending his own money, such as it is. He'll get reimbursed up to $30/day, for food only, and only after he gets back. That alone will severely limit his options... However, I warned him about you, Rachel. Told him that you had a whip, and to never say no to anything you said. (not really, but I did give him some names to "look out" for, so if a total stranger walked up to him and started being really friendly he wouldn't call security...)

ghost of miles Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 Rachel and sheldonm, you should hustle him down to the Chatterbox... I never used to get carded there! (Ah, but that was a long time ago... ) Quote

sheldonm Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 well.....I ran into Charlie Sangrey at Fry's about an hour ago. It took me about 30 "do you know where Charlie is" before I found him. Nice kid witha firm handshake....kinda looks like his old man. Said he's been working from 8-11 (I'm not sure if me meant 8 pm to 11 pm . The place was very busy and we didn't have much time to talk but I told him several of us were checking up on him....I also told him that messy bed room is top priority when he gets home! Some how I don't think he believes it is . Mark Quote
