What does American isolationism look like?

I've done both, and I concur. 

Luckily, I've been friends with the boss since he was 18 years old, so I can get away with a "you know what your problem is" drunk text occasionally. 

When i did a 5 year stint at a tier 1 place as Eng Manager, the owners son ("the Boy") said to me early on "you're too tight - you need to chill more - in fact, you need to take some of my don't give a fuk pills".

We were always insolvent, wen't pop once while I was there, and they then went pop 3 or 4 other times in a 4 year period after i left, and finally disappeared

Next time I think I'm going to send a PM to Brian, tell him what I'm trying to say, and let him make the post.  

It'll be like this!

the owners son ("the Boy")

It just happens that the current owner, is the son of the man who owned the shop when I started. I was his boss for 15 years.  I still talk to him like I'm his boss. Even though we both know better.  lol

edit: now that I think of it, I was his boss for closer to 20 years.
