Towards the end of 2000, it was time for another change. First Lou found himself in a nice pair of boutique jeans. And then, shortly thereafter, in Duluth, Georgia. Today Lou tells Chris about his 37th job, Lucky Brand Jeans.

Towards the end of July of the year 2000, Lou moved from one mall store to another. There was a convoluted pay structure, a smudged eyebrow, way too much Dragon Ball Z talk, and for some reason Chris laughs his ass off at Lou’s shining example of a VHS double set (“Fuckin’ Dan!”). Today Lou tells Chris about his 36th job, Suncoast Motion Picture Company.

Towards the end of May of the year 2000, Lou moved to another wing of Woodfield mall where he found himself surrounded by Hummel, Lladro, and Swarovski figurines. There was more dusting than selling, and way more Huey Lewis than is reasonable. Today Lou tells Chris about his 35th job, Ashley Avery's Collectables.

In May of 2000, Lou wandered lazy figure eights for three days while trying to avoid eye contact with coworkers and customers alike. Needless to say, it wasn’t a perfect fit. Today Lou tells Chris about his 34th job, Z Gallerie.

In the Spring of 2000, Lou learned learned pretty quickly that he wasn’t cut out for sales. What do motivated housewives, pre-packaged meals, and the pandemic have in common? Today Lou tells Chris about his 33rd job, Jenny Craig Weight Loss Center.

From late March to early April of the year 2000, Lou decided to strap on a headset and give something new a try. Lou and Chris look back on the olden days of searching the wanted ads to find a job, discuss adventures in typing tests, and Lou admits to having a very fallible memory (and shows receipts). Today Lou tells Chris about his 32nd job, Metro One.

In the early part of 2000, Lou found himself in a familiar environment. Not quite the same though, because this time was much less memorable. After covering what little Lou remembers about this job, Lou and Chris get distracted talking about a mutual friend’s dick, and the truth about Lou’s (lack of) skill with the ladies. Today Lou tells Chris about his 31st job, Tower Records - Schaumburg.

At the beginning of 2000, Lou was starting community college and needed a part-time job that would schedule him around that. When he arrived for his interview, they were playing Cap’n Jazz in the store. Kismet? Turns out, not so much. Today Lou tells Chris about his 30th job, Hot Topic.

Closing out 1999, Lou found himself surrounded by geodes, Galileo Thermometers, and rain sticks. There was a little love, a healthy amount of baby vomit, and a whole bunch of whale sounds. Today Lou tells Chris about his 29th job, Natural Wonders.

During the last few months of 1999, Lou threw on a red shirt and a pair of khakis, and walked unwittingly into his very own meet-cute. There were styrofoam cups filled with chocolate syrup, tricycle-riding M & M’s, and smidgeon of body dysmorphia. Today Lou tells Chris about his 28th job, Target.
