Mr ChriZ:
That's really good news, congrats!  :)

Doof:
Congrats! I'm constantly living in fear of losing my job. I just pray that if it ever does happen, I can rebound as quickly as you have.

I Cooked All Kinds Of Peanuts, And Many Other Nuts, Roasted, Deep Fried

Leo Owned 4 Stores In New Jersey, including the one that was right across from the old steal pier in Atlantic City (that was lost in a storm, It has since been rebuilt). Last Year I Went To The Board Walk And Talked To Leo For A Few Mins, And Bought Some Nuts.

Leo Hit Me With A Roaster Brush One Time For Burning A Batch, I Got A 10 Cent Raise About 15 Mins Later.

I Had To Put The Mr. Peanut Costume On A Few Times, I Felt Like A Dork. Normally He Would Hire Some Kids That Were In College To Do That.

We Cooked Them Fresh Daily, I Worked In The Ocean City Store. It Has Moved A Few Stores Down Since Then Where A Arcade Was Back In The 70's It Is Now On A Corner Store (Good For Business).

The Green Mexican Pumpkin Seeds Would Always Pop All Over The Place.

Some People Liked Burnt Peanuts

If You Did Not Watch The Roasters Closely In The Last 5 Or So Mins When The Peanut Oils Would Start To Come Out You Could Easily Burn 25 Or 50 Lbs At A Batch Depending On The Size Of The Rooster. I Normally Would Mix The Burt Ones Into Good Batches So You Would Only Get A Few Burt Ones.

When I Was Working There, I Never Ate At Home, I Would Be Too Full.
