My very first job was a Clerk at CVS when I was in High School for minimum wage. Despite working awful physical labor jobs, I still consider this to be my worst job ever. You're basically treated like shit at retail stores when you're a high school kid making minimum wage. Its no wonder these kids don't work too hard. Why should they? I remember they got pissed when they scheduled me on my Prom and I told them not to--I just didn't show up. They then scheduled me on my graduation and when I told them not to...this led to me to simply not show up ever again. These chain stores make me so annoyed--I encourage employee theft. And don't get me started on the self-righteous bosses.

And the second job I ever had was Roofing, which I did the summer between my freshman year and sophmore years of college. It was back-breaking work, and just like demolition, absolutely filthy. I'd come home covered in grime. I remember wanting to party all summer but being so exhausted I could only do it on the weekends. I also remember getting sunburned beyond belief. Its like 10 degrees hotter up on the roof and there is no escaping that sun. I'm glad I never have to do that again. My father was a roofer early in his life and talked about it often so I wanted to do it too. Between that and demolition, I learned a valuable lesson--stay in college and make sure I get a job that you don't hate going to everyday.

Alright! We actually got through all the choices. I will respond:

Accountant - right before this job, when I was in Grad School, and also a bouncer, I was also an accountant for Trinity College in CT. I was fresh out of college, going to school at Trinity and kind of adjusting to post-undergrad life. And I kind of hated it. There was just no excitement there and after 8 months I knew I needed to find something else a little more exciting and with a better pay scale (because it wasn't great).

Moving Furniture - So in my summer breaks at college, my first one was a roofer, then a demolition guy at constructions sites and then between my junior and senior year of college, I moved furniture for Yale University (which was about 10 minutes from my parents house). Yale had a moving crew where all the furniture would be removed from the dorms so they could be cleaned and them moved back in. It was the greatest job I ever had besides my current one; it paid extremely well--like $18 an hour (and I was 20 years old) and my co-workers were my brother, one of my childhood best friends and two other great friends who went on to become such good friends of mine they were in my wedding party as ushers. There was about 20 guys, all college kids--mainly, the job was for Yale hockey players to make money in the summer, but those kids would just sit around and do nothing all day so they needed guys who would actually do the work. Great, great job. Tough work but nowhere near the level of roofing and demolition.

Teaching Assistant - when I was at UCONN during my senior year, I had done such a good job in my previous semesters in various sociology courses for my Criminal Justice minor (like Criminology and Deviant Behavior) that the sociology department offered me a paid position as a teaching assistant despite still being an undergrad *and* even though I was a history major, not a sociology major. It turned out to be a great opportunity for me: great pay, great chance to get experience at the teaching assistant level and a great way to interact with people on campus in a new way. (It wasn't an intro to sociology course). It wasn't easy, as I had to grade papers in addition to my own huge workload, and I also learned about myself that I did not enjoy the teaching aspect of graduate studies (and I would never want to be a teacher). But it was a solid job that I liked and I had a great Professor I worked with.\

Bartender - and so, the last answer is the correct one, so Quis has it. That's why I waited for someone else to respond before I replied. Even though I worked at a bar for awhile and have spent many a good time in bars, I've never been a bartender. And since my bartender friends have told me in depth all of the annoyances they have to put up with, I'm glad laugh

lol We literally are mind-melded right now. I knew there would be side effects when we switched bodies.

Now I have to think about another question...

There are not many types of soda I actually like, and in fact, I find many of them repulsive (I'm not much of a soda drinker). Of the following repulsive sodas, which is one I actually like:

(A) Fresca
(B) Grape
(C) Orange
(D) Black Cherry
(E) Cream Soda
(F) Birchberry
(G) Mountain Dew
(H) Siera Mist
