Hi Robin Andrea, and I bet you didn't guess what job it was! Back in the 50's and 60's, the janitors in the city sometimes were independent contractors, with several buildings to take care of, and their wife would take all the phone calls about emergencies and complaints...

Hey enigma4ever, whenever I see this meme, I try to guess what's going on, and seldom get enough of a snippet to be able to tell.

What's really cool is to see that lots of people are reading lots of very good books. After dragging my kids through public school in a big city, I despaired that bookstores and libraries would soon be closing their doors...
