Every once and awhile you walk into an establishment and see a picture of someone famous who used to work there.

This isn’t as common as the ol’, “Jerry Stiller used to get his bagels here all the time, so he signed a headshot for me!”

But every once in awhile there’s a reminder that so-and-so worked at CVS or Barnes & Nobles.

I like to imagine that the people who work there now look at these photos and get inspired. I like the idea that when the famous person worked at Ray’s Pizza or Joe’s Bar that they would not shut up about the things they were going to do.

I like to believe that it’s the people who wont let it go… who eventually get to go.

And that all those celebs and future artists… were TERRIBLE AT THEIR JOBS.
