Bern-dawg Jablonski's Facts
Bernie didn't notice much while he worked at Franco's, really. He'll freely admit that he was a little preoccupied with the whole Brewers thing while he worked there. And he realizes he wasn't a very good employee.
He remembers that there was an office next to his in the building that had 'Number Two' on the nameplate, but he never once noticed who came in and out of that office.

He responded to an ad in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel for young Brewers fans to come to a warehouse downtown and earn $200 in a day to compete in a 'biggest Brewers fan possible' contest. There was a lot of free food available, hot dogs and such. They were then shown a video that sang the praises of the rest of the teams in the National League Central, and afterwards, they each picked their favorite baseball team. Everyone but Bernie choose the Cincinnati Reds. Bernie, of course, chose the Brewers. This was strange, because Bernie knew a lot of the other guys who were in the contest, and they were all die-hard Brewers fans.

He was then offered a job at the plant-due to his single-minded devotion to the Brewers, and he remembers Franco being quite impressed with him--for some reason, they thought he was extraordinarily strong of mind.

Turns out the only time he ever got any work done was when everything he worked on was emblazoned with the Brewers' logo. Franco got tired of marking everything with the Brewers logo, and this is part of why he was let go.

He was good friends with the Doctor who worked in the lab, Dr. Kutuzov, but the Dr. became very distant to him before he was let go by Franco.
