No, this is not part of a quiz, you know, “choose the job that is most interesting to you.” This is a “jobs Danielle currently has list.”
Yes, six pretty different jobs that I do every week.
I actually really don’t mind having six random jobs that help me pay the bills (or are the bills as the case with residential life may be). I kind of like spending four hours at one job, three hours at another, and then ending the day teaching a two hour class. I can tell you I don’t get bored! If I’m getting frustrated with one job I don’t have to worry about working at it for 40 hours a week.
I keep telling myself that one day I’ll have to choose a 9-5 job, one with security, but as I’m coming up on 28 years old I don’t see it quite yet on the horizon.
I graduated college six years ago with a bachelor’s degree in Journalism. Since then, I’ve had exactly zero jobs in which I have used said degree. I love writing, as you can see, but it’s only ever been a hobby.
While I sample all of these different types of jobs, I look forward to the day when one of them really steals my heart. Until then my resume is going to look like that of a job hobo.
Oh well, in the meantime….
Want me to play “Here Comes the Bride,” at your wedding? Or sing the national anthem at your next event? I could probably teach your child to play softball or soccer as well as basketball. And I’m pretty good at cooking, too.
Random job number seven? Anyone?
