There was an article in today’s Rock Hill Herald that, in a tongue in cheek manner, listed some of the potential jobs available here in York County that Tommy Bowden, who resigned as head football coach at Clemson, could potentially land:
- Dog watcher. York County has animal rights activists falling over each other to decide whether dogs should be tethered. What real people call “chained.” Bowden could dog sit.
- Dishwasher at the Varsity Restaurant. Owner Roy Russell soon will have to spend time shooing away smokers when the city decides coffee and cigarettes together is illegal, so Russell might need help in the back.
- Fort Mill mayor. The current mayor forwarded an e-mail that wondered if Barack Obama might be the antichrist. He then wondered why anybody would care, why the media cared when it became an Internet sensation, and why some said he may have been silly or stupid to do so.
- Chaffeur, York County Council. Meetings in York are a long way from Fort Mill if you aren’t supposed to drive.
- Rock Hill police officer. Wait, the city management prefers hiring consultants over cops.
- Avon salesman. A classified ad in The Herald on Tuesday stated “Income Unlimited!” I guess that means millions.
Of course, with a $3.5 million buyout, chances are Coach Bowden won’t be coming to York County any time soon looking for a replacement job!
