okay, but do you do windows?
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?

When I collect my Powerball Money, I will give you a call!

I would have been better off just answering instead of reading what everyone else does because now mine sounds boring..
I do special education social work for a county intermediate school district. I am very lucky as I am assigned to my local district and have a four mile commute (one way, mind you) each day. I have my summers off as well as Christmas vacation and Spring Break. I worked very hard for this position and it only took me about seven years of interviewing to finally get it
Before that I worked in a residential youth facility for juvenile delinquents. I was on call 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and had to report on site whenever one of the residents had a significant problem, threatened suicide, or a fight broke out. I also had to cover if staff didn't show up and no one would stay. I had to be within 30 minutes of the facility at all times or have someone else cover me so that an administrator was always close by. Through this experience I learned a whole lot, got to earn a lot of expensive certifications, and got a lot of recognition. It also taught me to totally appreciate the job I have now. If I never ever ever carry a pager or work cell phone again, I am fine with that

It does not sound glamorous. But you are trying to help and save people. That is very important!
