What jobs have you had?

i have had so many different jobs! i’ve been a dishwasher at a restaurant, a custodian, red cross office volunteer, a cashier, long term pharmacy call center representative (i don’t even know what i was doing in this position but i went to a hospital once and a woman patient winked at me in an elevator and told me she wanted to fuck me??) retail pharmacy technician, social media manager, radio DJ (for far too short a time), marketing department in a library, and other library worker roles.

i’ve taken something from every job and that means the good and the trauma.

i’m finally in a position where i don’t feel like my head is going to explode and where i don’t have to cradle a dying person in my arms as they choke to death on their blood — just one of the wonderful upsides of being a public librarian! those are stories for another time.

i’m happy where i am and i’m happy about the long and winding path it took to get here.
