I apologize in advance if anyone thinks this is a silly idea but I thought I'd start this thread as an alternative to the "What's On Your Mind?" thread. This thread is meant specifically to address any of the above questions that we all face every day as human beings.

Well, my only encounters with law enforcement was getting ticketed for riding a bicycle along a Subway platform and being falsely accused of beating the fare (also in the Subway). That latter incident I got away with a warning but only because the cop's pen ran out of ink so he couldn't write me a summons. I DID NOT try to beat the fare, though. The cop was either blind or trying to fill a quota.

I've been fired from two jobs. You pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start again. I've been at my current job for 23 years(!).

I've met lots of celebrities through my job as a doorman/concierge. My most memorable encounter was being grilled by Tony Soprano. "What do you people do here?" he asked of the type of business I worked for. And Donald Sutherland strutted in one time and asked me if I'd seen his wife. I had no idea who his wife was at the time. I assume he expected me to know The best encounter was running into Warren Beatty in the Subway. I was wearing a souvenir NYPD jacket and I guess he thought I was a cop. He goes, "Do you know who I am?". I think he was lost and thought I'd escort him back to Manhattan (it was a rough neighborhood at the time). I told him "No" and walked away. Kind of felt bad afterwards.
