Tagged thrice

I'm not sure what being "Tagged" means, but I'll follow the pattern already laid out, maybe I can inprove it a little with some commentary. This thing is spreading as fast as the language modeler...

Jobs I have held: (I wonder if I have Adam beat still at this point.)
1. Several different paper routes. I once delivered papers in a blizzard.
2. A/V "specialist for city night school - this mostly consisted of photocopying large numbers of pages out of books on the school copier for the head of the night school. I made $2 an hour, and I'm certain I broke a number of copyright laws.
3. Pan washer for a 5 star restaurant. Paid under the table, but they made us dinner every night.
4. Kitchen Staff at a scout camp. This will someday require several chapters in my memoirs. One day there was a dead squirrel with sunglasses on in my tent.
5. Easter Bunny. It's the sweatiest bunny suit I ever wore.
6. Wendy's. I enjoyed working at night, we had dinner at 10pm every night when the store shut down. (Fry balls and spicy chicken)
7. Events Staff - College Football games. One season. They paid me to watch football. And to say "You can't stand here, that's my job. Move along please"
8. Data Center slave. I always had a stack of things to do, 2-6pm daily. It often involved crawling under the floor.
9. Construction with John Ulrich. That guy talked nonstop. I wonder if he ever finished his kitchen
10. Data Center operator. I closed the place every Saturday. For the first 3 weeks back, I couldn't quite remember the commands on the Mainframe, so I closed my eyes, typed something, hit enter, then opened my eyes to see if it worked. It usually did. I used to fall completely asleep listening to the shift supervisor tell very, very boring stories about Vietnam.
11. Framing crew with Kevin Olson. It took 2 days to earn Equator and Bob's respect, but I count that as a good thing. Some people (Steve Jayme) never got it. Rob once poured a large amount of construction glue down my shorts. We once chained Equator into a port-a-potty and didn't let him out for a 1/2 hour. (In the middle of the summer)
12. Data Center shift supervisor. I didn't ever tell any of the student employees any of my stories about Vietnam. I once caught one who had a pornography problem. yuk. I also once went down under the floor, over to Amy's office, and came up through a tile behind her chair. It scared the crap out of her.
13. Shopko stockboy. Only for one Christmas season. They were sad to see me go.
14. Systems Engineer - The one that appears to have stuck.
Did I forget anything?

1. Galaxy Quest - in Thermian. Get the DVD, look at the audio options. I find the Termian track to be hilarious.
2. The Right Stuff - They say there was a demon in the sky...
