I Should be a [Sterotypical] Jamaican

I've had some interesting jobs in my almost 10 years of being a part of the American workforce. Let's just say I'm not afraid to make a change. Here's a run-down of some of the tricks I've turned for money:
  • Waitress
  • Pizza delivery operator
  • Real estate flier designer
  • Phone survey operator (very close to telemarketing)
  • Temporary cashier
  • Retail sales associate
  • Assistant to the administrative assistant at a casino
  • Part-time retail manager
  • Part-time retail manager (again)
  • Full-time retail manager
  • Retail sales associate
  • Event photographer
  • Book reviewer
  • Beauty product stocker
  • Local magazine intern
  • Cocktail waitress
  • Visual merchandiser
  • Retail sales associate
  • Blogger

Keep in mind that some of these gigs did indeed overlap each other, but not all of them. I know I've skipped around a couple of times when it comes to paying the bills, but I can't work somewhere that's boring. I like a little bit of a change. Some people might call it schizophrenic; I think I've learned or gained something from each place I've worked (no matter how temporary). If all else fails, I can tell you how many slices are in an extra-large pizza.
