When I used to do something, I was an attorney at a large corporate law firm in New York. I worked in the product liability department and my area of expertise (yeah, I laughed too when I typed that

) was privilege, trade secret and confidentiality issues in the discovery phase of litigation.
Before my midlife crisis, I went to law school was I was 39, I worked in banking. My last position was credit manager at Chase Auto Finance.

Hey DAB,
Which market? Might have to turn up with a 'rita or two...
AND it is a Ute, not a 'pick up'. We invented the bloody things so these yanks ought to learn to speak proper...

It's The Organic Food and Farmers Market in Perry Street Lilyfield.

I know it's a ute, but your the only one who would know what I was talking about

My title is Zone Merchandise Supervisor, ZMS.
What I do?
Supervise department managers and their staff on proper merchandizing and sales growth. Plan store layouts for seasonal changes and pretty much anything that is needed.
Also known as the Go To person and have several "champion" titles that have been bestowed upon me. (no more money just more work)
I work for what some people think of as the "Evil Empire". They have as a company been fair in dealing with people. Store management is where problems begin with a lack of on hand knowledge. My health insurance is adequate, as I found out this year, and many other benefits such as travel discounts that most people do not know about.
I am not ashamed to say that this December 28th I will have 12 years working at Wal-Mart.
Yes everyday is a spectacle of the absurd to see. There are also those great things like being that person whom an older or physically or mentally challenged person seeks out to talk to and get help. Some people come in to talk because they are lonely due to loss of their mate or just not having close friends. I enjoy working retail or the people buisness. I started at 15 at a Mcdonalds, worked radio as a DJ, billing for Dr.'s, worked in bands, bartended, even worked at a convienience store. These expieriences taught me much in life, and my prior activity of amateur stage acting have made me the baffoon you may get to see at a show or event.
Okay I know WAY!!! too much info.
SORRY!

Well, Jeez, Louise, let's see, I guess the best way to describe my occupation is to say that I'm a:
Baby sitter,
Minister,
Marriage counselor,
Mental health counselor,
Hall monitor (on the streets and highways),
Taxi driver,
Midwife,
Child safety advocate,
Animal rescuer,
Parking lot attendant,
Plumber (OH YES),
Doorman,
Locksmith.
I'm sure I'm leaving out a few, but you get the idea.

Ha. No. It could be moderately interesting to a very select few and I don't want to bore people with the details.

I do windows, I do bathroom floors, I vacuum, I dust, I do laundry, I wash dishes, and I walk dogs.
The question is, are you hiring?
