The service industry is one of the largest fringe communities in the world. It is filled with substance abuse, depression, and a death rate that competes with the NFL and pro wrestling. From all walks of life, these misfits become life long friends, family, and lovers. Hear about it from the inside. Players include, Justin "Tio" Morales. 27 years in the business.
