    That's reasonable. They didn't have to drive you.

      Horrible job, made worse by outrageous family business favoritism.

          Yah. The job was always horrible. I worked there through most of the '80s. Swore I'd never return, but in 2004 I was unemployed and went back. I was supposed to search for better employment once I was there, but I got lazy. The following year the owner died of cancer, so the Greek guy that ran the day shift (who previously owned his own place) took over. He brought his kids in who recently graduated and it was a horror show dealing with the family thing. I was getting paid great, but I knew I'd walk out eventually.

              One reason I stayed as long as I did was that
              I knew the kids wanted me out of there (the older one was the unofficial assistant manager and I refused to kiss his ass as others did). But when I know somebody's plotting behind my back to try to either get me to quit or have me fired, it makes me determined to bust their balls by covering my ass and countering their moves to make them suffer with my continued presence.
              But finally the last straw showed itself.

                i don't think he was wearing his toupee on ROCKFORD. i cant remember if he had the mustache. he didn't have it for few episodes on A.T.F. so maybe he shaved it off for that.

                  No, he had his moustache on Rockford, but not his toupee. He made that guest appearance during AITF's sixth season. He shaved off his 'stache during the seventh.

                      The reason he shaved it off was he was tired of people recognizing him in public. They'd keep pointing and yelling "Meathead!". He didn't see the humor in it.

                        Then he grew it back again like right away, so he couldn't have been that upset.

                            Think he would be unsuccessful without his mustache?

                              I meant people might've recognized him anyway, or it turned out to be a hassle keeping it shaved. I don't know.
                              In an interview, Betty Garrett reminisced how Jean and Carroll couldn't eat at area restaurants during lunch break at the studio because they'd get mobbed with fans. But she and Reiner would go, and Rob would remove his toup and neither would be recognized. But that was probably before 9/76 when the earlier seasons were syndicated.

                                  Absolutely. I hope he donated it to a worthy person.

                                      Hopefully I never will. I have a small thin spot near the top, but I don't expect it to expand. My brother has it too.
