She was a dental assistant for a little amount of time, about as a long as Lindsey was a telemarketer. They both painted houses for a little. Mostly she worked as a waitress and Lindsey got music gigs. Richard Dashut's assistant Stacy once gave some information about their job situation: https://twitter.com/Stacy_B/status/633739041502949376

I remember waitress and cleaning houses (and Mr Useless as telemarketer), but dental assistant is a new one to me.

Are you certain?

Just when I thought I knew what they ate for breakfast in 1973...

Yes.

She's talked about it a number of times, but here's one:

I'll watch it when I get home (I'm in a loud club now).

Not doubting you, but Stevie has said MANY things before that were.....falsehoods.

Thank you for the link, though.

she talks about waitressing at the very very end of this, but it's such a good recap by her and Lindsey about how they met and got started I'm including the link to the whole thing for anyone who hasn't seen it or even those of us who have but forgot about it:

Haha,"I would have to stand and slightly bend, so I decided that I would never have that job".

Maybe things were different back then, but I find it hard to believe that some sort of schooling wasn't required to work on people's teeth. But hey, if Stevie says it's so, then it must be true.

There's a porn joke in there somewhere.
But I'll not tell it. Poor Stevie.

I've never heard that Stevie was working painting houses, just Lindsey.

She hadn't yet realized that, like a willow, she CAN bend.

It's sad that because of her own doing, she's become such a joke to me. Not saying I don't love a lot of her music and always will, but the person....the person has become insufferable!

It was both of them. Richard Dashut said that's how they met. He said Stevie was covered in paint.

I still think it was the studio they were painting, not houses.
