1 and 3 for the fandom old meme. ;)

  1. How many jobs have you had, and which was your favorite?

oh bugger i don’t think i ever actually counted before? uh…9. i think, i might forgetting something… or 10 depending on if you count working 2 different jobs at the same place as one or not? and at one point i had 3 jobs at once for about 2-3 months in the summer of ‘06 cus that was the summer before i went to college and i really needed the money. and i’ve got 2 jobs right now so… it sounds like i’ve jumped around a lot but mostly i’ve been working at this one restaurant for about 16 yrs now and depending on school/scheduling/whatever i would take on another job for more money. like when i was away at school i had a job at a cafe near campus but still went home on weekends to work at the first restaurant. 

My favorite i think was dishwashing (at the same restaurant where i’m currently the sous chef which is why idk if it counts as 2 or not cus VERY different jobs, cooking pays a lot better tho). i got the dishwahsing job when i was like 14 and once i had my system figured out? it was GREAT. cus see, unless it was a busy weekend or holiday i worked alone, and the dishroom was my domain and i owned that motherfucker and felt like i was good at something cus i can still polish a copper pot until it shines and STAYS shiney (that’s the trick cus if you don’t do it right it tarnishes and gets streaky). plus i got fed dinner every night. and if it was slow and the boss didn’t have any chores for me i got to read all night.

3.)Were/are you on AOL? Compuserve? LJ? Dreamwidth? A Listserv? Other?

my family completely missed out on aol entirely, i think i was like 12 when we got dial up internet? and then i got onto fanfiction.net. i didn’t get an LJ until college (’06) because a girl in my dorm introduced me to the wider world of Fandom. before that i was just reading and writing fanfiction.
