Tuesday Tell All:Jobs
This is possibly my least favorite subject because I don’t like to work, therefore, it is not fun for me to talk about it. However, someday my posterity may want to know how I earned money… here it goes
My first job was when I was a senior in high school as gymnastics coach for kids up to age 12. I absolutely loved this job, and would do it again if I had the chance.
When I came to BYU I worked at the new Creamery that just opened, and I worked behind the Grill. When winter semester rolled around, I moved to the original Creamery and worked register and behind the ice cream counter. I actually liked this job too.
When I was home for the summer after my freshman year I worked for a few months as a temp. I was full time, organizing hundreds of files for a company that had just gone through a strike. I was basically on my feet all day, looking for and stuffing papers in files on a wall long filing unit. I did not like this job.
After I had mono and was recovering at home, I worked part time for Bath and Body Works as part of their holiday staff. This was actually a fun job too.
I didn’t work when I went back to BYU winter term (after the mono) but during that following Summer I worked for a guy in my ward who was going blind because of diabetes. He was an old family friend. I did all his computer work, sent out packages, made presentations, booked flights, and dictated e-mails. I liked this job too, it was super flexible and I enjoyed working with him. (And good news, he got control of his diabetes and regained his vision!)
Back at BYU for the Fall, I worked at the Marketplace Cafe in the Tanner building on campus. This was not that great of a job either.
Trent and I were married over Christmas break, and I then worked full time for a company called RFP Depot. It was a company that supported government auction online. This job was okay, except it was full time, and I felt like it sucked the life out of me somedays. Also on Saturdays I coached Cougar Cubs Gymnastics. I loved this job too!
When I got pregnant with Tanner, I went back to school and worked part time at a call center doing phone surveys. This job also sucked the life out of me.
Now I am a Mom, and I love it, and never want to do anything else… except possibly coach gymnastics again if given the chance.
