Why I Want to Own a Liquor Store

Me by Brenna

Once the big record hits with Heiruspecs and I make my millions I want to own a liquor store. I’d play great radio stations, I’d play great records. I’d carry significantly less wine than most of these spots carry nowadays. That’s too much wine and you know it.

I think I’d like to stand around a liquor store and listen to records and sell people alcohol. There are so many things that might not be perfect about this situation. Running a business is hard. I don’t know anything about liquor. When I’m old will I want to stand up all day? My old roommate worked at Big Top and she said it was really hard to sell people liquor who she knew would be back later in the day for another little bottle.

But I have this strong feeling that I don’t want to do “knowledge work” cause it sounds like it is already terrible and getting more terrible. When I finish DJing I feel like I did a thing and that thing is done. There’s more work to go, there’s something else to do, but a couple hours of radio were crafted and delivered by me. I find that satisfying. It scratches a lot of the same itches that playing a live show does to be honest with you.

Frankly, I think it’ll take a lot to pull me away from DJing on the radio. I really love it, I feel quite talented on it and I think I can meet some of my larger life goals while doing this work. But if you want to sell me a liquor store, slide in the contact form my friends.
