Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
lazygood4nuthinbum's comments in another thread inspired this one:
"having never found my calling, i've yet to work a job i truly loved. i've had jobs that i enjoyed for years at a time, but then either changes in the job or in me or in life altered that experience so that i didn't like it so much anymore. after 2.5 years, i'm starting to experience early retirement similarly."
I'll start off with my answers in bold. the level of detail is up to you.
1. what is (was) your best j*b ever?
1st place : small engine and automotive mechanic, 3 summers to earn $ for college, Sears Roebuck, NY & FL.
2nd place: hardware/paint dept clerk for Montgomery Ward, 8 months
2. what is (was) your worst j*b ever?
a dirty dingy book warehouse in Johnson City, NY for 5 weeks. I needed the money for rent because my college w*rk-study grant was not transerred properly. the sofa in the break room was so disgusting i would not sit on it, ever.
3. what did you really want to do for a living?
geophysicist for USGS, never got there due to hiring freeze.
4. what did you end up doing for a living?
engineer for US govt, 18 yrs
