INTERESTING TIMES

Whenever I’m in between jobs, I usually get by with temp employment.  Actually, it can get pretty interesting.  There have been months where I have literally worked a different job every week.  It’s like a different world with every assignment.  And it’s not always office work too.  I’ve done customer service for a week when I’ve sat in a chair and had people yell at me all day over the phone or opened up emails where people yelled at me.  I didn’t really care though since I was only there for the short term.  Once, I got a short-term job picking apples.  I’m serious.  I hopped up onto the back of a truck and they drove a whole group of us out to an orchard.  I even got a healthy tan and to keep basketful of the apples.  And they were my favorite type of apples, golden delicious apples.  I ate them for lunch every day of the next week when I was working as a courier between different real estate offices all owned by one guy.   So at the very least, I’ve acquired a lot of different job skills and have had a lot of different experiences.  None of which I regret since I’ve learned a lot.
