What an adventure, and in Boston no less. I was there in 2006 or so, learning some cool new tech, and I enjoyed every minute of it (especially following the red-marked path or Freedom Trail along historic sights). I couldn't imagine having to make a living there, but to me it seemed like a great place with many opportunities. As a 22 year-old, it would've been wild. So I can only imagine what you were experiencing as a post-grad. At that age, I was settling my spaceship in British Columbia on the opposite end of the continent. 😄

I had my head in Food, and did little else in Boston. We ate out regularly, paid for by the restaurant and written off as R and D. I got room and board, plus a mere pittance in pay, but I wanted for little. I didn't have time! My fave restaurant was Durgin Park, closed now. That place was a trip.
Where are you now?
I remember having oysters and some famous sandwiches in Boston. But a brief experience is different from having to live there, so it looks like working at the restaurant had its pluses.
I'm in Vancouver now. Wackiest place in Canada. :)
