I love craigslist SO MUCH! My deepest regret is that it didn't exist back when I abandoned the conventional life to travel the U.S. and have adventures.
My favorite category, at least at this jobless point in my life, is the ETC under
Jobs. I don't know why I've wasted time looking under Nonprofit Sector and Office/Administrative or even Writing/Editing when the excitement of ETC was there all along.
This job just appeared today: Balloon Twister.
Yes! And training is provided! I want to be a balloon twister!
Sadly, I'm no longer qualified for some of the jobs, such as gestational surrogate and sleep research study lab rat (the cut-off age is 55. :-( ) And of course, figure model and tumbling instructor are out of the question! At least until I lose the last, stubborn 46 pounds to reach my Weight Watchers goal.
But you never know what will turn up! Careers you never knew could exist!
The copy chief at the Press Herald called me a couple of nights ago to say it's safe for me to come back now that the company has changed hands. I told him I'm interested in working on a "limited basis," because who knows? Maybe I'll be twisting balloons on weekends this summer!

"safe to come back"???? balloon twisting sounds like a low risk alternative to working at a dangerous paper!
ReplyDeleteHi, winnoskichick -- they keep kicking me out then inviting me back, so the big danger is to my lifestyle!
