Are you serious? None! I'm lazy! I do however plan to go back to work for Special Olympics.

You mean besides being a wife? I had a job where I did education for software and traveled all over the world, I guess that would be it for me!

The most fun was probably working at a movie theater when I was younger. It was a blast until I got promoted to Assistant Manager of a much larger theater.

In the way of fun, being an on air personality in radio back where I'm from was probably my favorite. I got to sit around and get paid for talking...not to mention all the free perks that came with the job. I liked becoming 'famous' and having the top ratings out of any of the radio people from anywhere around the region. Money wise, my first job tending bar at the largest nightclub around the area was my favorite. Playing off my 'fame' from doing radio, I always made over $1,000 a week in tips alone on top of my pay. I had lots of fun with the customers, too. Missing a finger and a leg, I'm no longer able to keep up with that fast pace, otherwise, I'd go back into that line of work. Now, I have to try and figure out what I'm capable of doing in the shape I'm in and may have to get some kind of education to be able to re-enter the work force hopefully some day.

When I was in college I served an internship with an Advertising/Public Relationships firm. that was my favorite job. i learned so much there. Since then I have had several brick and mortar and oline businesses and I have enjoyed them all.

I workd security in apartment building and it was fun
David C. Oct 28, 2008, 5:08pm EDT
Katie, this is a great question. When I was in college I worked in a local department store as a security guard. It was in a tough neighborhood so I was always busy. It was a lot of fun. I guess at that age I didn't realize how dangerous it could have been.

H M. Oct 28, 2008, 5:22pm EDT
most of your fun jobs sound better than mine. I used to mystery shop restaurants and go out to eat 4 -5 times a week. After a while it actually got tiring to do, but it was fun eating out places that I would never go myself because they were expensive.
Robin"Buffy's Stunt Double" D. Oct 28, 2008, 5:28pm EDT
I was a perfume rep for Chanel when I was 19-20 and made all kinds of commission and got to go to perfume smelling seminars. What fun!
Diane H. Oct 28, 2008, 5:29pm EDT
Most might think me weird but i loved the job that i had back when as a cashier for a grocery store. I loved dealing with the public at that time. Had quite a few before and after that job but that one was the most enjoyable.

The one I am at.
Joyce S. Oct 28, 2008, 6:18pm EDT
It is actually sewing. I do mending on the side for friends, relatives and people who refer others to me. I love to sew but don't think I could do it as a profession. I don't like being told who to sew for and how to do it and charging exorbitant prices. I charge what I want and sew what I want. I am making my niece's Sadie Hawkins dance outfits for November 14th. I like doing that but not quiliting and stuff like that. I am currently in the Social Services field and like it too but it is very stressful. It can be very rewarding or very down. I have been at this for 14 years. Sewing after work relaxes me.

I painted interiors of houses. Loved it. Still do some paying jobs now and them, but mostly freebies, for friends and in my own home. I change colors in my home about once a year!

Stay at home mom and wife. Other than that I really haven't like any of my jobs.

Thanks for sharing, my job as vehicle auditor, inspected and road tested trucks off the assembly line before they were shipped to the dealer where they were purchased by someone, maybe even you. (Chevy and GMC pickup trucks)

I've only had one paying job at HersheyPark in the employee cafeteria. It was ok, but I like my "job" as a stay at home mom.
DesertDarlene L. Oct 28, 2008, 9:57pm EDT
Don't tell my employers, but I never liked any of them. That doesn't mean I can't do them well. If I didn't need the money, I would definitely not be working there.
Brittney R. Oct 28, 2008, 10:25pm EDT
My favorite job is being a wife and mother...even though my toddler works me more than any boss ever will, LOL!

My favorite paying job...? Teaching preschool. Wonderful, eye-opening experiences. It just wasn't feasible for me to continue, so I went on to a more "professional" job. I still teach a two-year old class at church, and I absolutely LOVE it!
