A bunch of us student council members went in during the summer to prepare all the envelopes of paper work that get sent to the students for parents to sign before the school year starts. It took us a few days and they paid us in pizza and soda. It was fun. :-)PinkPixieDF (Heather)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13404305491966708485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353707606286892844.post-78078186685860436042010-06-20T12:26:41.573-07:002010-06-20T12:26:41.573-07:00This is pretty long, I know. I'm sorry. I just...This is pretty long, I know. I'm sorry. I just love talking about these two jobs!<br /><br />Best job ever: Working for a small company that did contract work for printers. The printer would make pamphlets or flyers or whatever for their client and then ship them in plain, flat form (straight from the press) to where I worked to be folded, stapled, labeled, whatever, to make them ready for actual use. It was crazy easy because after you do the first half dozen or so it becomes mechanical and you don't really even have to think about what you're doing.<br /><br />So because the work didn't require much attention they rented tons of movies bought huge piles of food and drinks and put it in the middle of the big table where we worked, and we would sit and fold or whatever while we talked, laughed, watched movies, snacked, whatever we wanted. Also, we worked whatever hours we wanted and we were just paid for the work we did, and I never sleep anyway, and it was like two blocks from my house, so I literally worked 18 hour days, went home and slept for four hours or so, got up and showered and went right back to it. I raked in tons of money for basically sitting around watching movies. It was AWESOME!<br /><br />2nd best job: Two middle school boys in my very tiny town called in a (completely false) bomb threat to their school and state law requires certain consequences for bomb threats no matter what. One of the consequences is that they have to be removed from the general school population and placed in an alternative educational setting. State law also requires that the person(s) who watch over them there is a certified teacher so they can get professional help with their work.<br /><br />I wasn't teaching at that time but I was certified and all the other certified people in town were, you know... teaching... so they hired me to do it. I didn't actually have to do anything other than watch over them and help them when they needed it. Their regular teachers were required to make their assignments, bring it to them, grade it, etc. And they were both super good boys who had just made a stupid mistake, so there was no discipline issue at all.<br /><br />So I essentially sat at a desk all day and read and sipped a cold drink while they did their school work. They even brought meals in for us! I was making money for sitting in a chair reading all day. SO cool. I'd do it again in an instant.<br /><br />I just realized that both of these examples show how lazy I actually am, but that's cool by me. They were still great jobs! :Dtheoriginaledihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09974211226208289143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353707606286892844.post-16494171314778392032010-06-17T23:04:09.356-07:002010-06-17T23:04:09.356-07:00I have always wanted to be an actual published aut...I have always wanted to be an actual published author, I think that is one of the most fun jobs to have if you can get paid for it.<br /><br /> The best job I have ever had was as a summer camp counsler, I spent two summers working at a christian summer camp in the San Bernadino mountains and I had a blast all summer long.A.J.

I have only ever been a waitress and a comms officer (and a pathology lab assistant which only lasted a week because it was so boring so I don't count it). <br /><br />I would love to be something like an children's illustrator. I don't think I would be good at it but I'd love to read kids books all the time and then bring them to life through art!Helen Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13333394240376076275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7353707606286892844.post-10382242275123212792010-06-16T23:04:36.938-07:002010-06-16T23:04:36.938-07:00My current job I work as a Mad Scientist and teach...My current job I work as a Mad Scientist and teach children science.
