After reading so many of the repetitive posts on here I have often entertained the same idea of posting a satiric thread.

I'm getting ready to get out of prison and want to be a truck driver. I'm the prison drug dealer and hope to kick the habit before I get out but I'm addicted to opioids marijuana cocaine.

Oh and by the way my prison sentence was for vehicular manslaughter and I'm forever barred from having any sort of driver's license. Do you think that'll be a problem?

Chief Brody, your response was amazingly on point. You might be surprised (OK, maybe not) at how many young men and women I encountered in my previous life, post arrest for a felony or serious misdemeanor (drugs, burglary, felony theft, weapons violation, stolen autos, etc) that said "I always wanted to be a cop. Do you think this will hurt my chances?" I usually was kind of blunt, "Hurt your chances? Nope - I don't think you have any to hurt." Fortunately, I retired before the world turned upside down and felonies were derated like a DEF starved Freightshaker, and my sarcastic but honest reply could very likely be viewed as inaccurate.

You forgot to say " other than that my record is clean"

Hello. I am planning on opening a restaurant with some family members. I am trying to do some research on how I would go about this. I know nothing about the restaurant business nor have I ever cooked besides the occasional Top Ramen. It's hard to find good and specific information on this. A lot of what I saw was talking about simply buying the restaurant and hiring cooks, and not being too involved. Essentially most people are looking for a source of passive income. This is not what I want to do. I would like to manage everything related to owning a restaurant, except the cooking, cleaning, serving and the recipes. I would love to work from home, but of course don't mind if I have to get out and network with the cooks I hire. What is the best approach for this type of business, where we buy the restaurant, handle operations, and hire cooks? The plan is to succeed with one restaurant and buy a second one. Rinse and repeat. Easy money. I would like to do it full time, and as long as I can get paid $2500+ with the one restaurant, it would be perfect. Would appreciate any and all advise. Also, if someone with experience owning a restaurant wouldn't mind sparing a few minutes for a conversation, it would be much appreciated, thank you

Wow, Daniel B. !

My email is in my profile. My dad (Italian/Sicilian) did it all my life; even had food carts in retirement. I spent 34 years in the industry.

George B. also has similar roots, if I can raise him up.

You can also friend me on Facebook.

ps: Andrey.. didn't you have similar roots ?!?!?
