My first job was at a McDonald's during summer vacation from school, then during college summer breaks I processed real estate tax payments for the county treasurer's office, and then I entered teaching, which I have been in for nine years.

worked for two days as a candy packer at a local candy place. i hated it. (I think this job was AFTER highschool, but can't remember)

i worked as a Roy Rogers cashier. hated that too. but it lasted a couple of months before i quit.

then i worked at the mall at Schatz Stationery. That was a bit better, but really wasn't fond of that job either.

Then I worked at Kmart for a year. Most of the time i actually liked the job. didn't really like the managers though.

Then I worked at an answering service and a laywers office (gal friday) while going to school in the evenings to get my un-used paralegal certificate.

Then I worked as a float teller/teller/assistant head teller for almost 5 years until i had dd.(mostly liked this job, too...except..you guessed it...the managers!)

THen i was a full time sahm.

Then I worked as a dental assistant part time for a year, until I had ds (loved that job, even the boss man).

then i was a sahm...dd#2 was born...soon had to go back to work to make ends meet....

So I worked as a gymboree music teacher for about 6 months until i moved and they put the program on hold (i was a teacher, NOT a salesperson, thank you. lol). LIked the owner before i started workign there, but then his true colors (and those of the others) came out. it was decent money but..glad got outta there!)

Then I did taxes at Jackson Hewitt part time for two seasons. Didn't do it this year because of my schedule at the hospital...which is my current job...an Multi Skilled Tech in the ER. MOstly like this job, even though the pay isn't horribly terriffic. I even like my bossman. Sometimes the patients are a bit hard to handle, though. lol!!

at Christmas season i worked at the mall selling mall gift cards in the customer service booth--one full season and then only one day this year bc of my schedule at the hospital

(and i have sold creative memories as a consultant and longaberger as a consultant, but those were really more feeding my addiction..not really money making JOBS (i spent it all on supplies-hahaha)

and i think that is all of them.
