Joyce Rachelle
There are some conversations that should never be heard in the light of day, it’s true, they should be confined to the pages of a nondescript journal, sequestered to the back of a dusty bookcase, maybe to be discovered post mortem. Life is not always graceful, and unfortunately for you, I process my experiences online, impulsively publishing my unfiltered thoughts with little regard for your sensitivities.
Rachel Aul’s Penn State experience resembles many students’. She’s from Pittsburgh’s South Hills neighborhood and proudly graduated with a degree in public relations and advertising last May.
What sets her apart? Well, she drives a 27 foot-long hot dog across the country for a living.
Aul, better known as “Relish Rachel” to her coworkers, first saw the
Oscar Mayer Wienermobile driving around Penn State’s campus her freshman year. However, she never thought that she would “cut the mustard” and be a professional hot dogger herself.
“I love to travel and had just spent my junior year in Paris, so I thought I would give it a shot,” Aul said. “They only accept 12 drivers for the six Wienermobiles.”
