I safely washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights during the summer of 1965. I safely cleaned golf shoes at Flossmoor County Club, chipped slag at Thrall Car in Chicago Heights, and pumped gasoline at John’s Sinclair in South Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966. I safely delivered mail in Park Forest during the summers of 1967, 1968, and 1969.  Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used the aforesaid to demonize me, to denigrate me, and to condemn me as someone who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, who has always been privileged, and who is a draft dodger.)
