OK,
So as you may or may not have surmised, Guitar Center is a horrible place run by a set of bullshit corporate rules designed to fuck the employees (ridiculously referred to by GC literature as its most valued asset) out of a great deal of their time for a unbelievably small pittance of cash. Dedicated readers will be hearing a lot about this is the upcoming weeks.
But the people who work at the GC are in general pretty solid dudes. Sure there were some that I hated, but for the most part the kids were alright.
Here's one of my favorite Guitar Center memories:
Brendan Hooper and I were eating pizza in the break room. He and I are both large-ish fellas and since we were pressed for time due to the aforementioned bullshit rules (i.e. approximately twelve seconds for lunch on a busy day) we had to improvise in order to get a full meal. So we started folding pizza slices on top of each other and making pseudo-sandwiches.
We decided we would call these creations "pizzandwiches". This name is catchy and works well, but soon we realized we would need a name to describe this culinary creation when we were traveling in Mexico. Thus was born "El Sandizza!"
Hey! I'm really glad you're back, but honestly, can you do something about those popups? Thanks and Happy New Year!
