Holy crap, it’s been a while since I did this meme. I have been busy every Wednesday for a few weeks now. BUT, since I am home with a sick kid, I can dally about the net and get some blogging done.Please visit your temp host Crazymama and the usual host, Queso.
1. what is the worst job you have ever had
Far and away the worst job was the summer I needed something quickly and got involved with the Florida PIRG (Peoples’ Interest Research Group.) They support various environmental causes and we went door to door petitioning for cleaner air and water. The reasons it sucked: all that walking before I ever lost weight really killed my feet. We canvassed for about 7 hours straight. Then, the pay was all based on signatures/donations. So I didn’t make much because people are MEAN. I quit after 3 days.
2. have you ever been fired?
Nope. I quit all my other jobs voluntarily.
3. what would your dream job be?
I would say writer but honestly, I would love to do part-time admin type work for some kind of office and spend the other time writing. That would be ideal.
4. what did you want to be when you “grew up”?
I have always wanted to be an artist of some kind. That or a teacher. And I am still doing that. I used to joke with people I’d be a starving artist but I’d be happy.
5. how old were you when you got your first job?
I suppose, if you count babysitting, young. But my first real job was CompUSA in 2002, so 23.
I’d have hated that job too. Sounds way to close to cold calling for insurance.
Door to door stuff? I don’t think I could do that for 1 day. Ugh. I wouldn’t hack it as a writer – I’m horrible with originality. Happy Wednesday!
That would be a horrible job!!
I like your dream job answer…I actually could do that. Well, I work in admin full-time, but I have lots of spare time to do the “dream job” which is writing…and for some reason, I’m not doing it. (Other than blogging). I need to start writing again…
I could never have done the door to door thing, that must have been miserable!!
I’m a regular host now. it was a threesome until mamarazzi needed a break. thanks for linking up.
that would be the worst job ever, like telemarketing in person. totally would suck!
