What in the world have you done?!

Morrigoon · 06-19-2007, 11:11 PM

Catering assistant in a dinner theatre
Concessions at the Hollywood Bowl
Jewelry cart in the mall
Ice skating rink (skateguard, cashier, mopping out sweaty locker rooms)
Bookkeeping
Airline ticketing agent/gate agent
Airline ramp agent (you know, the baggage people with the flashlights, that sucked)
Restaurant hostess
Airline crew scheduler (keeping an entire airline's planes (18) fully and legally staffed during irregular operations
Disneyland "spoon"
Disneyland character hostess
Disneyland attractions
Receptionist (as a temp, did an admin position in the cardiology department of Hoag Hospital, FWIW. That sucked too)

[i]edit: oh yeah, Life Insurance Salesman

Gas station attendant
Fast food slave
Waitress
Motel housekeeping
Motel night manager
Hairdresser (over 21 years now)

Looking over that list, it's no wonder I identify with people in the service industry. Hard work.

Also wanted to add- if we get to comparing weird stories, the night manager one has provided me with a great many.

Another fun tangent is how many of these actually end up on our resumes/CVs! In my case, about 5 do...
