Did you used to have sex with your customers in the stockroom at Consumers Distributing? Did you do lines of cocaine off your co-workers' breasts in the staff room? Was the two minutes while a customer waited to find out if the Casio watch they wanted was in stock the greatest, most-powerful time of your life?

If not, that's probably why you didn't feel the same attachment to your old job that the former Keg employees do.

Two minutes? Slow down, Speedy Gonzales. This isn't a race.

Man...the restaurants that I go to are really boring.

I loved Consumers Distributing. So far ahead of its time. As a kid I would love going through their catalogue.

If they could have found a way to convert to online sales in the 90s they'd be Amazon.
