Now that's some intense manual labor. I'd never make it in that heat. I passed out on the line one time when I was stationed where the air conditioning was out. Working on the bend of a belt... wham down for the count. BP dropped so far they wondered if I was dead... LOL. I'm exaggerating... I did pass out though.
I was at the top of the rehire list for my manual dexterity (couldn't prove it by the way I'm typing now). Got a piece of cake job for three weeks one time because I was the only one who could put 20 Visine boxes at a time in a display "deal"... A picture of me doing it made the company magazine. It was a story on the college help they used.
They spread the boxes out (normally they come down back to back) and I had quite an audience while they did the shoot. After every one cleared out, one of the efficiency experts came over to chat... I picked up my twenty and they went flying! He started laughing... "that would have bee the shot..." I only lost my grip on them that one time. <ggg>
They gave me the photo after it was published. It's around here somewhere.
The drive-in... I worked in the box office not the back row. I was a good girl in the early years (heavily repressed by my parents). As my mother put it after I got through at UofM... "You were a nice girl until you went to that school. That school ruined you."
Hi Karate was indeed a men's cologne... The TV ad was some Karate cat slicing limes on a conveyor belt with a hand chop. The ad was a lie. <g> Black Belt was also a men's cologne... one of the more offensive scents. Last year, I was visiting one of my college friends who knew my summer job history and my loathing of "scent" in particular Black Belt.
I thought he smelled familiar. I asked him what he was wearing. He beamed and named some designer odor. I said, "Oh. It smells like Black Belt." Wish I had a picture of the look on his face. I think that's the first time an expensive perfume was modelled after a cheap one.
I do not remember the smell of English Leather.
I'm old to enough to think the best smelling men on the planet wear Old Spice.
