PULP FICTION
PREMIUM

My mama, she waited tables at a diner out on Route 12. Just outta town that was. Best kind of work she could find, her having no high school diploma and all. Took a real liking to that job though. Like a fish takes to the water. A real people person, you might say. Type of woman to always greet you with a big old smile, no matter what troubles she might’ve been going through. And she had troubles.
