Job Ref: Restaurant Manager

Donnie! Marky! Paulie!

It’s Jeff! Remember me? Little Jeffy! We used to terrorize the streets of Boston together back in ‘84. Remember? You guys used to call me Flo Jo, cause I ran so fast after we blew up that Chrysler in Mattapan!

Looks like you three really made a name for yourselves the past couple years. That’s incredible. Real Boston heroes, making those burgers and everything. We all knew you’d make Dorchester proud someday. Don’t let anybody take that away from you.

You guys still beating up Chinese people? It seems like only yesterday me and Marky were skipping school, walkin’ the streets of Beantown, just itchin’ for a fight. Oh man, those were the days. One wrong look, and the two of us would pounce on some poor sucker like a cheetah. Just start wailing on ‘em. And we’d be saying Hail Marys while we’re punching the guy, so we could get a leg up on Father Patrick in confession. Oh boy, do I miss that feeling!

What else have you guys been up to? Me, I’ve been in and out of a few facilities, but I’m on my way back to Boston. I’ve got a pretty good copy of this year’s Red Sox ticket design, but I gotta save up some money to get a decent printer and some card stock. You think I could pick up a few hours at your burger place? I’ll cut you in on the scalping job of course.

Ah God, it’s been so long. Donnie, remember the time you walked outta church one Sunday and said, I’m gonna hockey fight the next person that walks out of that Stop & Shop across the street? That family never saw it coming! You just pulled his shirt over his face, and wham. The cops kicked your ass good!

I can do light bookkeeping and know most payroll software.

So, yeah, I don’t have the cleanest record, but you guys can vouch for me, right? I’m still the same Flo Jo. Plus, remember I do have a masters in Business. I still got the diploma I took from that house we trashed in Coolidge Corner!

Plus I still got that scar from the night Paulie banged Nomar’s wife outside Store 24. Paulie, you owe me!

So, what do you say? Can we get the gang back together? My cousin still knows a guy that can get beef from a dude real cheap…

Sincerely,

Jeff Wattenhofer
