TAN #29 The case of the disappearing TAN (Page 80)

I've had some type of job since I was 14. I kinda forget what it's even like to just bum around.

x2.

HOWEVER, had a couple month hiatus from the jobs when the companies downsized.  Had severance to pay the bills so that wasn't a worry - and a new job lined up, but MAN did I love the time off.  It took about two weeks to get used to not being on a schedule, then I thought to myself "I could REALLY get used to this" (the not working part).

You've got to be a pretty large sized human being to wear an XL bike jersey the way that bike jerseys are supposed to be worn.

Wow... yeah that's rough.

I just worked cuz I wanted the nicest bike, rollerblades, nintendo, etc. and my parents wouldn't/couldn't buy those things for me all the time like some of my spoiled friends. I'm way better of than them now, though because of it.

OK, im gunna rant here for a second.

I"m going to preface it with the following:

I paid my own way through school with the exception of one semester where I was too sick to work in the summer so my father paid for tuition and books that year.  I then signed all of my tax credits over to him for two years.

I just like to do it on my own.

my sister, OTOH, had handouts all through school for everything, tuition books, she doesn't have any issues with taking money. Thats her deal, I don't feel the need for it to be "fair" or have the money be reciprocated or anything like that.

OK, so she's living in Whistler at my parents cabin and has been for umm, 5 seasons. She spends all her money on clothes, skis and toys and asks for handouts for physiotherapy, tri club membership, flights to join my parents in hawaii.. etc etc.. the list is endless.  My brother is similar to her too.. but anyway, where I'm going with this is... she lives in the cabin there, doesn't pay rent or bills or anything...  I would LOVE to live there for a season when I get back, I would pay rent and the bills... anything.. but she has one of the two downstairs rooms that are joined by a thin wall and the upstairs room is for my parents when they come. ...   So although I'm cool with all of what she takes, I'm finally getting frustrated with her living arrangement.

the end.

(I have moved back into my parents place in the last 6 months to save money for my trip, so I can't be on THAT high of a horse)

So - what's the worst job you ever had?

Mine was in college.  I was a repo man for a rent to own furniture company.  This guy and I would drive around in this truck and go to a guys house that was late on his payment.  He could give us a check or we would take his couch (or whatever).  I still hate sleeper couches to this day.  those things are heavy.

I'm the youngest of four. .. 

I've had a job since I was 12..  i realized yesterday that on the 30th I will be unemployed for the first time in 13 years and I'm only 25!

So - what's the worst job you ever had?<
