5/23/2026 I Worked Cheap!

When I was fourteen years old and during the summer I lived to help my brother in-law with his part-time job cleaning up a The Capital Hotel's piano lounge... "Senate Lounge" in my home town of Jefferson City, MO.

He always gave me the job of vacuuming the floor. I would race in every morning to sweep up the bar and find the change customers had dropped during the night. Years later, I found out that my brother in-law would throw a few coins over the bar for me to find. It cost him only a dollar a day to have me fight to be the first one to clean the bar. 😜

Gotta Love The Guy!
