Title: This is my other day job.
Post by: DarkDude28 on May 12, 2009, 08:36:10 pm
As we all know each other I've been wondering what most you do as a living. This is a place to let us know. Let's how many different jobs we can come up with. I guess I have to start. I just graduated from college with a degree in Sign Language Interpreting, but working as a butcher. Past jobs have been. Cashier, Cater, Model, Driver, Job couch, Children's library assistant.

A model for what? Midgets 'R Us? :P

Currently, I'm a Quality Assurance lead for an office supply company. Thrilling, I tell you. Previously though, I've been a: lounge singer, jazz pianist, video store clerk, stripper, piano teacher, and cashier. Not in that order.

Unemployed right now. Was a cashier, stock person, I watched my neighbours 3 kids for a few months, and I watched my cousins twin boys for a little over a year every day, mostly all day, when they were like 8 months - 2 years. (Which is why I usually don't want to be a mother.)

Hahaha! Yeah, I hate sales positions so much I try to hide when a customer is around when I worked at CompUSA in my area before it went out of business after their grand opening two years prior. Heh... Stupid people...

Anyways, I have worked the following:

Delivery driver - Pizza Hut
Cashier, line cook, drive thru - McDonald's
Unloader, Sorter - UPS
QA, Order Picker, Packing, Returns Clerk - US Toys and Oriental Trading Co.
Tech Support, SME (Subject Matter Expert) - HR Block HQ (THE most retarded company on Earth)
Accounts Payable - Some retarded transportation company in CA
Dishwasher - Nursing home


BTW, that's cool that you studied to become an Interpreter for the deaf. I have known a few in my lifetime, and some are pretty cool friends to catch up with now and then.

I work in the control room of a cocoa factory for about 20 years now, so we make cocoa butter, cocoa liquor and cocoa powder.

Cocoa butter is used in lipstick and many other things. Also, we make the powder for Oreo's. So whenever you eat chocolate, chances are I made the ingredients.  ;D

On a side note, white chocolate is only cocoa butter with sugar added, white cocoa powder doesnt exist.  :p
