Well, Trina, I tried to keep your FHE idea alive but it doesn't look like a survivor to me. If you notice I didn't get any comments either and no one else volunteered. Maybe we should go back to our questions. I still have to answer the one on the aunts and uncles and I'll get that done but meanwhile here is a new one. What places have you worked and what did you do?
Mindy left this morning for Idaho. She has one passenger, Vanessa Reynolds, our former Bishop's daughter. They left at 6:30 this morning and miraculously managed to fit all their things into the car. I'll be riding out there with Deb on Wednesday while she takes Amber, Sarah and Ron's son Josh. Josh is going to work for his Mom's brother in Idaho Falls. He was going to ride his bike until Carol told him that Deb could take him. On the way back we'll get peaches and maybe pears in Idaho, where they cost half as much as here.
Emily is at Nathan's, today, earning some extra cash by helping them clean apartments and get them ready for the next tenants. Dad and I are staying home, cleaning, doing yard work, etc. You know - laboring on Labor Day.
Have a great day,
Love,
MOM

I've had probably thirty different jobs, and I won't even try to list them all here. The major ones have been cashiering, massage therapy, customer service (on the phone), bus driving, limo driving, dry cleaning, and now I'm an electronics technician.
Hi Mom! I've had several jobs: towel sorter and night janitor at Coveral Uniform Supply, security guard at the Portland Airport and later at the Washington County courthouse (in Hillsboro). I was a janitor and then (for a longer time) a recycling specialist at BYU - the largest and most profitable campus recycling program in the Western United States. I was a security guard again at a truck yard in Long Beach, an apartment complex in Thousand Oaks, a mall parking lot in North Hollywood, and an oil refinery in Torrance. I was a substitute teacher in Long Beach, a medical biller at Long Beach Memorial Hospital, a computer trainer for clients all over Southern California for Executrain, a software quality control tester and computer trainer for American Home Loans in Santa Ana, an instructional designer and mortgage sales trainer for PCHL in Irvine, and instructional designer at WAMU in Irvine (but the other side of town) and now: educational technologist (trainer/instructional designer) at the DLIFLC in Monterey. I think that's everything.
Fast food, security guard with Eric at the courthouse in Hillsboro, and paint crew during the summers when I went to WOU. I worked on the campus newspaper of all 3 colleges I attended, always in a paid position. Since college, I worked at the Oregon House of Representatives, Project Vote Smart, and the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Interestingly, all of my post-college jobs - besides being government/politics stuff - have had me mostly writing and editing, no matter what my actual title and job description was. And now I'm taking a crack at the actual blogging world instead of just a personal journal of sorts with pictures for family and friends to see.
I've been a babysitter, a salesperson at American Eagle, a worker (I have no idea what my title was anymore) in an Alzheimer's wing at a nursing home, bringing their meals, helping with the meals, and cleaning up after meals. Then I was a Parks & Rec person working with the youth day programs at various parks in Bothell. Then at Linfield, I had a paid position in Residence Life from second term of freshman year until I graduated (first as an RA, and then for two years as a Community Coordinator for Program Development). During the summer of my sophomore and junior year, and then all throughout my senior year, I also worked for the Conferences/Auxiliary Services department (first cleaning the res halls for one summer, then working administrative work for all the summer camps and then during the year stuff). After I graduated, I worked at Willamette University as an Area Coordinator, and now I'm an apartment manager and a mom to the world's cutest toddler. I think that's all!
My jobs: classified substitute, quick service food and beverage at Walt Disney World, assmebler of dental equipment, and my last job was a cashier.
I've been writing this on a lot of job applications.
I delivered papers, I worked in the kitchen at McDonalds, I worked for a temp agency and got hired on at my first job which was RB Rubber making rubber flooring (I worked on both the processing side (turning rubber to powder) and the production side as night lead shearman (cutting the finish product to size)), then I was a detailer at Lafayette Auto Body and RV Repair which means I washed cars, I worked as a host at Izzy's for a month and at the same time started at Capitol Honda as a car lot attendant which is a fancy way of saying I washed cars. I also taught drivers ed for a few months. At Honda I started doing Warranty paperwork, cashiering, and service write-up. At Willamette I worked security type jobs (work study) and finally I started working as an apartment manager (mostly doing maintenance) and for Braille Plus Inc., recording notices and applications and some books.
I think that is it.
Emily: didn’t you used to count cherries?
Delivering newspapers, lots of babysitting, janitorial services (both for an actual janitorial company and as a classified substitute), English teacher (in Russia), behind the counter at both KFC and Subway, assistant teacher, tutor (for math, reading, and general homework), comissioned artist, deli worker (for the summer at Macey's in Provo), preschool worker (for two weeks), temp worker at a mill (for three days), and most recently assistant manager at Payless where I sold shoes (and I'll probably be transferring to the store here as well).
