[severine]

paper girl
babysitter
grocery store bagger
video store clerk
gas station attendant
customer service for a plant mail order company
municipal secretary (Assessor's Office)
sales floor @ Target
ticket scanner @ ski area
and ultimately, Stay-At-Home-Mom (SAHM)

Favorite: video store clerk at the family-owned store (I also worked @ Blockbuster before that). I was under 18 so my parents had to sign a waiver allowing me to vacuum the "back room." On Sundays, we had to go through the cases to check that all the correct adult movies were in them and we played a game making a story out of the titles. It was stress-free, my coworkers were great, and the family was like the "family." (The remind me of the Petrellis in "Goonies"--John especially.)

Least Favorite: sales floor @ Target. Hated that more than bagging groceries. They were under-staffed even though it was holiday season and they were a brand new store. I'd have to run an entire department by myself and even though customer service was supposed to be our #1 priority, I would also have to clean up all the aisles in my section (I usually had the Bath/Bed/Home section) in my 4-5-hour shift (and was told I should be able to refold all the towels and freshen up each aisle in less than 1 minute!). No consistency in hours either. Not worth the nearly-minimum wage pay.

I don't include SAHM in Favorite because I don't get paid what I'm worth for that work.

chronologically it was out of order, but I took six months away from the restaurant biz in the late 90s to work as a carpenter; mainly for knowledge for when I became a homeowner some day.

Oh, I forgot pizza delivery guy. Outside of during the ice storm of 98, that was a pretty cool job. Ride around all night listening to tunes, occasionally delivering a pie to hot college chicks, but mainly Burlington Hippy stoner dudes.

Sold Hawaiian Tropic suntan lotion on Daytona Beach,

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner..

Video store clerk,

I know a Blockbuster manager and on a whim might fullfill another steezy position..I'd just recommend Bill and Teds Excellent adventure to them or a Pauly Shore movie..doesn't matter which one..they all suck..

Obviously this was over a long period of time, the first one was when I was 16. That was a tough job, give a 16yr old a knife and some booze, lot of drinking at that job, and all of the sudden the kielbasa skins turn into blood sausage.

Now for your link, you can't see how a knife handler and security would go hand in hand?

dream job #3

Good thread:

Kielbasa Skin Cutter (serious), Jewlers helper

you were a moyle?

another steezy job..and all the briss food you can eat..can you pass the gefilta fish..

I forgot to mention chicken house cleaner ..

Reminds me of an off-color KFC joke..

I forgot to mention muscle shucker.

The dudes from Right Said Fred already have that job cause they're too sexy..

If you have a job that reminds you of the Goonies..you were living the dream..in a sno-cap induced haze..

Not the clientele I imagined from movies involving pizza dudes. Instead of..,"You forgot the Sausage" you get,"Dude it's $18.58 here's $19 and a Organic Groove farmers bootleg..keep the change brother..

A Slitter is a machine that you feed large sheets of corrugated cardboard into and it rips them down to the proper width. The Catcher has to stand there and stop the smaller sheets from flying out too far, then stack them on a pallet.

Yeah, had to get a Plant into OSHA compliance.

We often get telemarketers from safety magazines who call to ask if we have regular safety meetings..of course we do because you can never be too safe. Especially when you are skiing and riding.

Under Warehouse work, I worked for TNT firework for about 3 months when I lived in Bozeman MT. I had the song TNT in my head about 5-6 hours a day and still do when I see the TNT stores around here. The boss sexually harrassed me pretty bad. She was a cougar in a beatup addicted to meth kind of way which kept her skinny but always said the dirtiest things to me and other colleagues..hey as long as it got us extra overtime.

I befriended two guys from the job. Jules who was from Africa by way of Toronto and was attending Montana State Univeristy. He was a sick ping pong player and enjoyed blasting the remix to ignition. Also George who was from Jersey origionally and moved to Montana on a Greyhound bus and lived in Public housing. Him and his wife who worked two fast food jobs one time hit up KOs the big danceclub in Bozeman and they were indeed kicking in old-school...George also worked with me at Gallatin Valley furniture...

Collater...spellling..I worked for a temp agency for a stretch and I had a job stuffing envolopes and various information packets..some of them with up to 15 items..for insurance companies and what-not. If I had 8 hours left to live..I would spend it collating because it would seem like a month. My boss could hardly speak English and she chose one slow guy on our "team" as the scapegoat and called him a Monkey and berated him for forgetting one brochure in a 12 piece mailer. The warehouse was right across from Batesville casket for stoke!!!
