Amy Poehler Recalls Struggles of a Teen Job

Long before she starred in Hollywood movies or Saturday Night Live, Burlington native Amy Poehler had a job scooping ice cream at Chadwick’s ice cream shop on the Lexington/Waltham line.

Poehler recently recalled her time working at Chadwick's, which has since closed, reminisce about how she loved the attention she received when dishing ice cream and how it taught her to look forward to the future. She recalls serving the BellyBuster sundae, which, as anybody who visited Chadwick’s knows, was HUGE.

For a nice trip down Chadwick’s memory lane, check out Poehler’s column in the New Yorker.
