Cataloging my past jobs was actually kind of fun!
- Pizza Maker
- Insurance Company Receptionist
- Music Store Clerk
- Real Estate Company Secretary
- Travel Agency Receptionist
- Teacher Assistant
- Secondary School Administrative Assistant
It has brought up some great
memories, like the time I worked in the record store and got to meet Ratt and
they gave me free tickets to their concert…(You’d have to be from the 80’s to know)…
Or
the time I got a free trip to Maui from the travel agency…
And then there was
the time I helped kidnap the Inflatable Pink panther from the Insurance company
with a ransom note and everything…good times.
But, by far, the most favorite job I have ever held was that of a
mom. I miss those days of fully devoting
myself to homemaking and caring for my family.
I aspire one day to do that again…you know, work from home fully
devoting myself to a clean home and yummy meals, exercising, being more spiritual and doing yoga, of course...A girl can dream...
However, I have been given the most flattering job title lately by some of the students, and you know, it runs a close second to ‘mom’. Some of the students have been calling me ‘School Mom’. I work on state reports, handle accounts payable/receivable, schedule students in their classes, manage transcripts, answer phones…but what the students call me is School Mom, and I LOVE IT. Seriously, could there be a more flattering title?
School Mom because I show concern, offer kindness, I
compliment, I smile, I help them if they need something, I get them medicine
when they’re sick.
School Mom…because if you can’t be with your own mom, at least
you have a school mom…
What job title do you own?
It will come, Lisa, The best job is "Grandma"!
