Bouncer in a boobie bar

While I didnt realize it at the time, installing commercial carpet.

Working in a corporation the past 8 years(which I hate) has made me appreciate the jobs I used to have and hated at the time.

I'm becoming more like Kevin Spacey every year Im ready to go flip burgers.

I stopped with my G/F today at a ice cream place and watching the girl make the waffle cones I said "I want their job". They were smiling and having a great time.

Hey Mark S, I've been to natural Sound store -great place, with lots of cool stuff- I Iremember back in 1997 I think, when they were the first ones to get DVDs when they came out- the gentleman who works there grabbed a cardboard box from under the counter full of the first batch of DVDS- everyone starting oohing and awwing like it was long lost gold treasure-anyway sounds like a grat job yo have there.

Well, it was my buddy and not me unfortunately, but the job was -- shoe clerk. During one of the intervals in the 70s when girls wore micro-skirts. During the summer. And on hot days, my buddy says, the Italian girls wore no underwear....

Working at Six Flags Fiesta TX during summers back in high school. Wearing the Looney Tune costumes. Hot as hell (Fiesta TX is in an old quarry, in a San Antonio summer, wearing an all-black, full-body fur coat that's sealed at the hands, feet, and head), but it was a ton of fun. Shows were every 1:45 apart and took about 35-45 minutes or so, including getting dressed, so between that we would sit in the green room and watch movies or play old NES classics on the clock.

And before people ask, I've played most of the characters. Sylvester, Bugs Bunny, Marvin the Martian, Taz, Yosemite Sam, Wakko and Yakko, Wile E. Coyote, Foghorn Leghorn, and quite a few others. Voice of experience, teenage girls love Marvin the Martian.

Summer job working at a pool and spa store while in college. They were so short-handed that whenever the manager would get uppity we would all quit and walk out the door. Before we could even get our cars started he would come running out offering raises if we came back to work. I felt kind of bad for the guy. The owners also bought us lunch every day and let us borrow the company trucks to move back into the dorms at the end of the summer. Plus, we took turns sacking out in the hot tubs during our shifts. Nothing like getting paid to take a nice soak. That was the life.

One of my college summer jobs was driving along the shoulder of highways, about 5 mph, counting cracks. Yes, I've driven almost every highway in Oregon, over two summers, and I counted every crack.

I think I have that beat, now. I recently joined MOD at NASA JSC. I'm training astronauts, flight controllers, and instructors in EVA (space walks) and eventually I'll certify to become a flight controller. Should be fun.

They pay me to shoot guns, surf the internet and be up in everyone's business. Love it!

Man, I feel so cheated!
I mean how do you get a cool job like counting cracks in the road?

Is there a cooljobswithgoodpay.com website I should be checking out?

anyone remember miller's outpost clothing store? i had *such* a good time there. made out with lots of the chicks, did some other things in the store (that i guess i'd better not type about), and just had an all-around freakin' good time!

i also liked my very first job, working inside gemco...at least until i got fired for stealing a yogurt and string cheese from the grocery department. :b

my current job's pretty cool too though...

So long ago that there were still different bins for the Stereo and Mono LPs.....I was enjoying my first year in radio.
My rent was $85.00 a month and gas was .25 cents....which didn't matter because I had no car most of the time. Everything else, I had, including about 3,000 albums. The girls...ahhh. The girls in that particular little Midwestern college town actually thought being a DJ was cool.
