Silly Photo to Fill Space- Summer Jobs (Gas Station Attendant)




If you are a college student coming back from spring semester at Penn State or Duquense to your hometown of Altoona, Pa., and you have found out that they have already hired someone to be the mascot of the minor league baseball team The Altoon Curve and that summer internship at "The Altoona Mirror" (the local newspaper) is unavailable, don't worry!

You can become a gas station attendant at a place like Martin's General Store off Exit-41 on 199 (for legal reasons, we should state that though there is such a place, we aren't sure if they are hiring!).

Apparently, this particular gas station is right across from a Sheetz, which is based in Altoona, and they now have stores as far south as Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (that is a joke, but they are in South Carolina.....?!)

One internet poster said that the store has really, really great pizza but alas they offer no diesel.

As for the Altoon Curve, in my personal opionion (though it may not come across this way I mean this as a sincere compliment), their mascot looks like a cross between Marvin the Martian and Gumby!

The Curve's next home games will be from June 7-9 against the Harrisburg Senators.

Altoona, Pa., is also the birthplace of current Florida governor Charlie Crist.
