My first non paper route job was a job at an outdoor restaurant and theater. The tables had thick plastic sheets for tablecloth. I had to bus the tables and run the lights for the theater. I was hurrying with bussing tables because the show was getting ready to start. I knocked over the biggest glass of tea onto the table. Then I noticed the tablecloth had a wrinkle in it. Every drop of that tea was funneling the river of tea just to the left of my customer and into her purse. I was so embarrassed. She said her purse needed to be washed out anyway. I learned a lot that night. I hoped I could be that gracious in a moment like that. I also learned it is way more important to focus on the spill prevention than running the lights on time.
I grew up with a trampoline. Broke David Rose’s leg on one, and was punished by being made to do his paper route while he healed & he kept the route money. as an adult, the neighborhood kids have a trampoline that’s in someone’s like front/side yard with no fence. see them on it all the time.
That's a tough punishment. My friend Joseph fell out of our climbing tree and had to have 3 stitches in his lip, no one sued. He just didn't come over for the rest of the summer.
A high school friend of mine sells insurance now, he said the only way to keep your insurance from skyrocketing or cancelling when you get a trampoline is if you can prove you absolutely will not have fun with it lol
they didn't have nets in my day. that would have been awesome for our royal rumble trampoline matches. im thinking we'd have broken the neck. i had a rectangular trampoline and more than once i did a flip and landed head first into the springs. it's great exercise.
They were statistically bad news before the nets. Even now, if you get two people going you can get to concussion territory right quick. But, treated with respect, they are great fun.

They used to be called jumpolines until your mom started jumping on them.
okay that's pretty good 🤣
As an adult they are nice to lay on at night and look up at the stars.

We would put our trampoline up to the edge of the pool. Like a perfect osha violation
People can't afford houses with yards anymore. If you have a trampoline now you're upper middle class
That's the way it's always been.
Truly depends on the area and the state in which you live.

Yep, it truly does. My yard is 80 acres and I pay around 2k a year for property tax.

Guessing what happened to trampolines was lawsuits.

The guy at the store was probably remembering putting a trampoline together back in like 1985 or something before they had those spring tools lol
I want an in ground trampoline
they are making a comeback where i live. brother and sister both have one for their kids.
I love how he happens to have both wipeouts on video lol
Gotta stick with them plastic cup restaurants with them ball tents for the kids near the highway.
Wow. Eleanor looks just like her dad.
That was funny
There's a correlation, the more healthcare expenses rose trampoline sales dropped
Bro! Does Hanna do your graphics? They are boss! They really boost the fun factor. 😂 Come back to Boise! (or have you never been here?)
Hey y’all my name is Oates, and I’ll be your server…
How would the glass being of high quality comfort the waiter when he still managed to break the supposedly high quality glass?
I think the Germans made an unbreakable class. Anything Hannah says, I believe tho
No one wants to risk a financially devastating trip to an American hospital as the result of a fling off the trampoline.
What happens if you just don't pay the ambulance bill? I'm in collection status
