Interview with Petey from A Reliant Love

Interviewer: Welcome. Thank's for taking the time to meet with us.

Pete: Sure. I mean, it's required, right?

I: Technically, yes. Please state your name, age and something about yourself. 

P: The name's Peter MacDonald. I'm twenty-two and a senior at UMA. I played varsity football and lacrosse in high school and was pretty damn good.

I: Do you play here?

P: No, I quit after high school. Well, not quit. I just don't really have time for a lot of extras. I work a lot of different jobs so I'm busy. Plus school. Sports fell down the responsibility ladder.

I: What do you do for work?

P: I work at a bar. I do yard work for my apartment building--it pays the rent. I also will do odd jobs when people need it. Sometimes I'm a bouncer during the school year. Random stuff, but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do.

I: When you have free time, what do you like to do?

P: A lot of the time, I go home. I have a twin and my mom is home a lot. My sister is in a wheelchair so I  like to check in and make sure everything's okay. 

I: What's your sister's name?

P: Sarah.

I: If you don't mind me asking, why is she in a wheelchair?

P: I actually do mind you asking. So if we can move on, that'd be great. Last time I checked this was questions about school. 

I: Sorry. So what is your major and plans after college?

P: I'm a liberal arts major. I don't really have a plan yet. I know, that sounds crazy, but I'm happy where I'm at. I'll probably move home for a little, make sure everything's settled and then get a real job. I like bars and food so maybe I'll work at a restaurant or own one, or something. I'm not worried.

I: All right. Thanks for talking!

P: No problem. Sorry about, uh, before, you know.
