In all seriousness, I imagine being a hot dog vendor would be a way more fulfilling occupation than being an IRS lawyer.

There was enough mind numbing paperwork in my military job β€” I cannot even begin to imagine the mud pie making wastes of time this fellow endures on the daily.

I had a hot dog place for awhile. I was relaxing. You being happiness ro people

From the article;

β€œhe’s a lawyer for the IRS who writes tax regulations.”

I would also state that slinging hot dogs actually contributes more to society than writing regulations for an already over-regulated system.
