If you to "private/personal" work for someone it should stay that way.
I don't blame Sumlin at all.

Hard to feel too bad for the pool boy. I know I sure wouldn't mess with Sumlin.

Hey, I for one am proud of any UH grad that applies himself in this way to escape the 7-11. Well done, young man!

Yeah, but what's next on the ascension ladder of success for this fine UH grad? Reliant Stadium Parking Fee Collection Agent? Warehouse Outlet Shelf-Stocker? Restaurant Supply Assistant Salesperson? Airport Mini-Starbucks Barista? The possibilities are endless!
Don't worry. Be Happy. Or not.

If you are in service industry and have celebrity clients, you keep your mouth shut. He learned a good lesson hopefully. You don't see many other pool boys or lawn guys or limo drivers tweeting about their clients do you? There's a reason.
