Unfortunately, my current place of business is collapsing in on itself like a star. They were able to foster me for a bit, but now I need a forever home! Honestly, I'm a hard worker trying to take initiative.
So if you have anything during this murderously slow season I'm happy to hit the ground running. Thank you for taking the time to read this!
Warm regards,
Derek Trigg - Bar Manager
