My first month in Key West 45 years ago my grandfather let me watch the pool room for $40 a night We had four pool tables 5 video games in a little room downstairs with a bumper pool room The job sounds easy but it wasn’t some of the locals doing drug deals sometime they would lite a joint downstairs and there was a fight or argument once in a while eventually I was moved up to the doorman and manager not really a manager my grandfather made every decision may be right or wrong I spent seven years Working at that bar part time a education of a lifetime I went through seven spring breaks
