I've had other jobs, like waitressing, customer service, etc. and hated every single one of them. I don't like dealing with people in my face, expecting me to "service" them asap. And second-rate bosses on power trips.. ugh. No thanks.

I've done quite a few jobs under the sun, but I usually stick to hard labour. House Removals and road works are a few I've stuck to for a couple of weeks in the holidays, but the main one I've come back to was working in the cornfields as a scarer at the amazing maze in maize.

Then I've had a few days where I've taken random jobs to remind myself what to not end up doing in my life. Most rubbish running and recycling jobs are thankless, foul, and involve being dehydrated as fuck, and rather motivating in my studies.

I'm a lameass cashier at a grocery store. I like most of my co-workers, but most of the customers suck. It's cool though because my favorite prof. comes in sometimes.
I'm hoping not to be working there too much longer, as long as I can transfer after this semester.

The Judge teaches and studies. Yes, she is as generous with her knowledge in life as on the internet.

Dont worry the "clerks" euphoria wears off after a bit.

Ive done alot of different jobs over the years, clerk, bag boy, grocery stocker, DSL tech support, credit card loan spec, septic technician, aircraft electrician, bar tender, bouncer, shipping manager, fast food joint manager.

fuck, that's to much shit for a 25 y/o.

Now currently I'm a ranch hand while I'm saving up to start taking courses on AutoCAD

It's still holding out strong, but without a Randall Graves, I don't know how much longer it'll last.
