Random Jobs

Through my short working career, I'm perhaps close to (though not the record holder)  having the most odd jobs of anyone with a Bachelor's degree.
 
Here's a list of them, in chronological order
  • Mailing Assistant/Catalog Sender for a small gourmet food company
  • Sandwich Artist
  • Service Station Attendant (pumping gas at the last full service station in the state)
  • Student Technician at a local ISP
  • Student Helpdesk Technican (answer dumb questions, make sure no one in masturbating in the labs)
  • Temporary Warehouse Worker (putting stickers on items)
  • Temporary Warehouse Worker (driving forklift and putting stickers on items, while also shrink wrapping pallets of random crap to send out to distributors)
  • GIS Analyst Intern (Making Maps)
  • Mapping Specialist (Making Maps, but now Map is in my title!)
  • Teaching Assistant (Teach dumb kids)
  • Research Assistant (Save the world through conference calls!)
  • Resource Foreman (I was head of a team of Moth Trappers - that's right, MOTH TRAPPERS, a team of them!)
  • Teaching Assistant (Teach dumb kids again, but now with experience!)
  • GIS Analyst (Make really fancy maps!)

That pretty much brings us up to date right there. That's a grand total of 14 positions in less than 10 years of work history, however to be fair, I counted working in 1 warehouse twice, mostly because I was fired and then re-hired at a later date after my name was cleared.
