Yeah.

And I continued bar work the whole time as well.

The Comeback with Colin Tobin

You know, just on the subject of that, right, my own son now, Jake, is 19.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy
The Comeback with Colin Tobin

He'll be 20 in August, right?

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy

And Jake does do bar work now, but Jake does bar work now that I'm full sure of his personality.

Now, I know no one is a crystal ball and we don't know how people are going to turn out.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy

But I could have sent Jake collecting glasses when he was 15 or 14 or 16, but I didn't.

I kind of waited.

And where I'm going with this is bar work is fantastic for the right person.

So is DJing.

And but for the wrong personalities and people maybe with certain afflictions, and I've seen this all too many times in my tenure in bar work, like if you were inclined to maybe gamble or if you were inclined to have a drink or maybe inclined to go to a house party and do things you shouldn't be doing.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy

So I wanted to keep my son away from it.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy
The Comeback with Colin Tobin

And I guess I loved the bar work, I did.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy
The Comeback with Colin Tobin

But could I say that going back 20 years ago, I never had a drink problem, ever.

The Comeback with Brenda Dennehy
The Comeback with Colin Tobin

But 20 years ago as a 20-year-old man, you're probably drinking a bit more than you should.

You're having a few pints after work.
