Mine was as a waitress when I was 18 in an American style diner, Friday and Saturday nights.
I loved that job, it was like getting paid to have fun, hard work, but so so good.
We used to have a competition to see who could make the highest individual tip in one night, my best was a fiver, and in those days, that was a lot!!
When talking about that job, I come to life still....happy days!
Anyone else had a good one, for what ever reason?
The one I'm doing now lol
I was a tea boy for a firm of actuaries. I used to listen to them playing chess in their heads.

I really wish I had known what that word meant!!(actuaries)
Praise to google, for folk like me!
I love the job that I do now smile
For a few years I had a part time job in a bookshop which I loved especially as you got free hot chocolate from the cafe!
I also worked for tourist information during the common weath games in Manchester.....that was fun, especially as somehow I managed to blag myself a press pass for the games itself :)
12 years I was in the RAF Regiment best times

Mine's about 3 years away yet! lol
I maintain that if you enjoy your job you're doing it wrong

I had two part time jobs at the same time, one was artistic director in a lap-dancing joint, the other was training dolphins at an aquarium. Both jobs took up a lot of time and of course was partying hard as well.
It all went wrong one day when the stress got too much and I was throwing haddock at the lap dancers and trying to dress dolphins in lingerie......ah happy days!!!

Now, now fellas - as we all know it all went down hill when they switched from those tailored red uniforms to those yukky grey ones.
The new ad is pretty cool.. and most of them are actually crew which makes it even better. I actually used to love walking through the airport with 15 pretty ladies... most of them were real head turners :D
Oh and G.... were you the one with the huge cock and great tongue and did you go all night? If so, yes, we shagged wink

I'd pay you in kind! :rascal:
I haven't had my favourite job yet. I have no idea what it would be.
At the moment work just seems to be hard work, no fun and waiting for the redundancies to come.
When I was 18 I had 6 week summer job working on the refit of a car plant in Liverpool. The bed and breakfast was paid by my employer, I had two mates with me, the work was bloody hard but at 18 with cash in your pocket, no worries about how you spend it and the whole of Liverpool's finest young women out there it was heaven!
My favourite Job will be mine in approx 4 years.....
I used to work with kids. Laughed pretty much every day - that was pretty cool.

What a cool post... it could practically have been written by Willy Russell for something like 'Blood Brothers'.. sorry, as you were, it just really captured something in me :P
My fav job is the one I do now although when i had my video business I did get to film some errrrr raunchy adult films occasionally biggrin that was fun

:doh: Stop it, stop it, stop it... If I had to pick, the RAF have always been my 'favourite'
Whatcha doing to me man?!
wink
I'm going to try not to ramble
I think I've been rather lucky in retrospect.
I seem to have enjoyed just about everything I've done at some point or other, for one reason or another... but wo to anyone who caught me in a moaning mood, for by goodness can I moan about stuff!
People-stuff...
other than that:
The early years were great, coming down to the big smoke and working in a 'creative' (he said, waggling his "quotie-fingers") environment, with an easy boss who liked a drink as much as I did, and being in the middle of soho and soaking up all that sordid atmosphere as it was in those days.. the madness of production runs.. and the general ease of the job itsself... excellant.
Then they expected me to go all "professional" (more quotie-waggles) on their ass!
It could never last... stress and fours too many drinking...pah!!!
Brilliant laugh in a time that felt really free and deleriously ... errrm... silly.
(a strong will to ignore all responcibility helped... I'm better now, a bit)
Then a few years... nah.
Lost momentum now...I may come back with an edit for the middle bit.
But Now, well... the job is immensely rewarding and extremely good fun at times... though I have people/staff/interpersonal moan stuff going down...
but if i were to slide that to one side, the "meaning" of the job, and the folk I work "for" (sorry... waggles) have made a tremendous change to my general approach to life.
I approach it differently... though its still chaos.
there's responcibility now too... and professionalism, so Im told... though I manage to hide my distainct lack of the second under a veneer of "personal approach" (read: having fun) <<no waggles.

:thumbup: Couldn't it?! And to be fair, I say that in a good way.

I have loved every job that I have ever had. I totally believe that you will find good in everything you do if you put your mind to it. I love my life generally and I, of course, love the job I do currently.
I did make a massive career change around 7 years ago and still have friends in the 'old' place who tell me that others talk about me positively and say how shocked they were when I left as 'if you cut splendid she would have bled >insert name of company<' I am proud that I am still well thought of as I did enjoy the place and I have immense loyalty to anyone that will pay me to work so that I can feed myself and mine.
'be the change you want to see in the world'
antique dealer proffesional for 3 years biggrin :D :D

best job ever

Despite the hiccups ( as in the 2 shifts this week so far rolleyes ) this is the best job I've had so far. It may sound strange to say it's rewarding when your work involves dealing directly with terminal cancer and seeing death on a regular basis but if I can help to make their last days/weeks as painfree and comfortable as possible then I've done my job right. Being there to help support the family plays a big part too
Second fave has to be selling golf equipment despite not being able to hit a cow's ass with a barn door. :roll:

I often wonder how folk like you can do this valuable work.
When we went through Dads death last year, what he suffered was so horrible, and yet people who are basically strangers are there for you, and genuinely care, about you and your loved ones.
It takes special people to be around death and suffering, and dealing with raw emotions.
I am so glad that some step up to the challenges that this type of work brings, I think I now have a handle on how it can be so rewarding.
