Jobs I Have Had- Freewriting

Let's see if I can list every job I have ever had...I'm going to attempt to list them in order but we'll see...
Penny Power- I was probably 10 years old and shared this job with my siblings. We made about $15/week each, not good
JParino's- I was a buser and I used to squash the leftover rolls as I bused the tables so my manager couldn't make me reuse them!
Perkin's- I started as a server, I also did hosting and baking over my career there that lasted off-and-on for probably 6 years
FirstUSA- This paid well but I hated it! When people only call you because there is a problem, they feel pretty free to insult you(and your mom...)
Blimpie- I worked here for about 9 days if I recall correctly
Roddie's Salon- I loved working here, doing hair, loved most of my co-workers
Salon Alabaster- I owned my own salon for a couple years, I loved doing hair, hated doing taxes. Business owner is not a good title for me!
T-Mobile- also a horrible choice for my self-esteem, it's too bad I'm so good at customer service! I won awards for performance all the time and hated every minute I was on the phone!
Roddie's Salon(again)- I went back after closing my salon because I didn't want to handle paperwork any longer.
The Cutting Edge Salon- I worked here for 3 years and Really liked it, loved my co-workers, loved my job, didn't make enough money to support 3 babies...
And a final place that shall remain nameless because I got screwed...

  1. I always had a passion for doing hair but my husband said cosmetology school isn't the route to go. I guess I am glad I took his advise.

  2. I can't count how many jobs I have had in my lifetime and places I have been to do them. My wife always looks at me funny when I talk about them because she has had all but 3 jobs.

    I am looking forward to some consistency when I am done with college though. It will be nice to be part of one company, from start to finish. I wish you luck!
