Jack of All Trades Master of None. No, really...here is the
list.
Apple Salesman- I sold a bucket of apples at a train station in St.
Petersburg in 1990 at the age of 5.
Recycling of Cardboard, Cans, Bottles, Scrap - Between the age of 7
and 11, I collected and returned recyclables to the right places
for small cash.
Paper Boy- At 13 I got a job for the Columbian as a paperboy, and
was so for a year.-
Labor Underhand in Construction-At 15 I learned how to do some
light construction work by being an underhand for a 3 man
construction crew that build fences, light frame work and
decks.
Landscaper- From 15 to 17 I had helped an 89 woman and her son do
some landscaping maintenance work for 2 complete sets of
apartments. Doing so allowed me to learn and practice with this
skill set.
Soldier- At 18 I joined the US Army. I became a Combat Medic living
by the creed of the Oath, "Serve, so that others may live." I was
stationed at Ft. Sill, Ft. Sam Houston and Fort Bragg. I was
stationed at an Army hospital and for 2 years did a rotation
through almost every clinic, ward and treatment center including
Family Practice, Out Patient Blood Lab, Internal Medicine,
Dermatology, Cardiology, Inpatient Ward, Surgery Prep, ICU,
Logistics, Nutrition, Respiratory Health, Allergy &
Immunization, Oncology, and the ER. I was a Nationally Registered
EMB-Basic with some extra combat medicine skills.
Fast Food Employee- I worked as a fast food employee. I worked for
McDonalds, Dairy Queen, and Burger King. During my one year of fast
food I had done the jobs of cashier, fry cook, prep cook, assistant
manager, and maintenance.
Middle School Teacher - In 2007 I got a job as a 7th and 8th grade
math teacher in Gila Bend, AZ. My official title was An Emergency
Certified Temporary Substitute Teacher on Permanent Basis. One
month of hellish and wonderful education. It was awesome in
retrospect.
Recycling of Appliances- I recycled variable appliances for a
company in Portland, OR.
Secretary of College Security- In 2008 I got a job as a secretary
aide for the department of Information & Security at Clark
College in Vancouver, WA. This job was exactly what you think it
was.
Personal Chef- Some times I cook for people, I like doing that and
people seem to like to eat the food I make.
