Fair just came through town. The big slide was fun. You could just eat acid all day, seems like not a half bad job. Stories?

I'm an adult, I don't do 'slides at carnivals'...
If you have ever watched american horror story, then you would avoid them 
I once was refused entry on a ride because my coin money was apparently 'fake'. Then my aunt went nuts and the guy let me on...

Carnies are usually ratchet as fuck ICP gang bangers, ex convicts or whore prostitutes whose pussies blew out

considered doing it once, but the carnival only payed 400 a week and you had to bring your own car if you wanted to do anything outside walking distance on your time off. That just made it not worth it for me. I Would have probably spent more money on gas than i made.

My dad's uncle was a ride foreman for traveling circus's in the 60's and 70's. He's got some crazy stories of all the fucked up shit that would go on within. A rigid hierarchy, carny dialects and language modifiers (similar to pig latin but more confusing I guess), rampant murders within the carny community, drug smuggling, police bribery.
Some of the stories would have me rolling though.

I was a freelance carnie for a number of years, but I've never worked for any sort of travelling collection of amusements.

I can't stand carnies and I'm not really sure why. Just something about them gives me the heebie jeebies. Its probably a good job if you're a low life fugitive.
