14: database entry for a friend of my mom's.
15-17: Domino's Pizza. My dough-tossing skills are undiminished.
18: Cashier at a cafe inside a very upscale grocery store
18: Internship at a recording studio in town (owned by Ray Benson and Asleep at the Wheel, if'n you've heard of them) - simultaneous with the cafe job since this one didn't pay
18: Registered with a temp agency, only ever got one 2-night assignment: telephone market research, looking for people to participate in a paid focus group for Sunny Delight - overlapped entirely with the recording studio internship
18-19: Internal corporate tech support for a chain of pawnshops, night shift - met my husband at this job, end of this job overlapped with the first six months of the next job..
19-23: Videogame sound designer, company declared bankruptcy after a long financial struggle
23-24: Went back to the same temp agency, got one 1-day assignment as a receptionist at a gas & oil company, then got a 6-month assignment with a commercial construction company
24: At the same time as the construction office job above, worked nights doing contract audio and voiceacting for educational software.
24: After the construction company gig ended, but while the evening audio job was still happening, worked an intense 3-month contract at a second videogame company to get a beleaguered game out the door on time.
24: Went full-time at the educational software company, filling in non-audio hours as a project manager. Only job that ever made me cry, twice. I'm no good as a project manager. Finally settled in once they stopped making me delegate to idiots and just let me do all the work myself in a quarter of the time.
25-26: Had a baby, cut back to about 5 hours/week with the educational software people, strictly audio-only.
Oh yeah, college happened in there from 17-21. God, I practically need a Gant chart to lay it all out. Except I never want to see another fucking Gant chart as long as I live.
