Ahh actual jobs I've had 8.. but if you count babsitting, volunteer work, direct selling, tree planting.. I couldnt tell you a definite number I will say just my regular parents that got me to babysit add on 7 more.. I did camp counselor, worked in the kitchen another year, another year the photographer, soup kitchen, out of the cold shelter, spc, nursing home and food bank volunteerment... I tried to sell scentsy.. was successful until with my man he is sensitive to smells so gave it up now trying to sell avon its not working the best.. tree planting did it with a friend cause a bunch of people quit on his boss.. was only 2 weeks worth so wouldn't call a job
Hahaha it was a camp a resbit sorta thing doubt I spelt it right.. I lived at the ranch a different set of kids came in every week in July and Aug.. id be in charge of 8 girls in my bunk and 12-15 girls and guys in my travel group.. not necessarily the same girls in my bunk.. took them around to different games on site the ranch set up was horses, archery, canoes in a lake, a pool, bike trails, sing along times, story times, and meal time.. my group would be also matched with a different mans group and all the groups would compete loudest cheer.. so every group had two leaders one female leader abd one male leader.. no couples were allowed to be in the same group.. every Sunday id be alone at the ranch prepare my own food since I lived 4 hours away they let me stay absolutely best days of my life also the toughest cause they were under privileged kids.. foster kids.. troubled kids.. the ranch went bankrupt but a few of the kids I met ill never forget.
It was.. ill never forget Janet she was in my bunk house basically only time id see her is when wed go to sleep.. She cried for the first day cause she wanted to be in my travel group.. so Judy one of the camp/ranch directors tried to see if anyone would leave my group and go into Morgans group no one wanted to leave.. I said to Judy the whole point us for her to have fun she behaves very well in the bunk.. That week I was paired with Mike.. Mike agreed with me it was fine.. at the end of the week she had her arms around my neck wanting me to be her mom.. I was only 16.. the leaders ranged from 14- 19.. the ranchers from 5-13 depending on the week.. I asked about her she was a foster child mom a coke addict has no other known family around she was 7...
Another kid that stood out to me was Myles he was wise beyond his years.. my guy leader left a death in the family middle of the week.. and Myles even tho he was only 10 one of the youngest in my group actually that week was 10-13 year olds... he was like my little helper.. cause a leader was suppose to be a child all the time lets say one forgot today was swimming one leader would take the children to the pool the other would stay up outside the lodge and wait for the others to change.. so one of the girls fell he leg was bleeding took her to the pool chlorine is a disinfectant but that wasn't good enough she wanted a bandaid.. and we were at bikes.. the kids that week were hard very bad didn't listen my only week I joked back tears.. felt like I was wasting my breath dont sit there, there's sap.. what they do sit there.. but anyway Myles offered to go find Judy ask for a bandaid since they are suppose to go in pairs I sent Ben with him he was one of my good ones he didn't want to go so with Myles I told them both if they went id buy them something from the canteen.. so they did.. meals were provided for free each kid had $10 he/she could spend how ever they liked during the week at the canteen was all candy.. so Myles was Jr. Leader and two of my most difficult kids were given to other groups.. so we made the most of it.. at late night story time id wear layers cause I knew my girls not all would listen a bring a sweater.. even tho it was still warm.. so first one that came to me that got cold id take one off until I was in a teeshirt.. didn't get all of my sweaters back but its okay use to make me mad but now I hope taking my sweater home with them gave them some comfort.

I took what jobs were available including 3 8 month stints as a conservation volunteer which was unpaid.
I've had about 1 job at restaurant
one at dollar store
then one at grocery store
one at gas station
and then 3 different IT jobs.
10 as far as I can recall, in three professions: graphics, telecom, massage.
The first 26 years of my life I had about 30 jobs. In the last 12 years I've had two.
Waitress, salesperson, web developer, office assistant and hopefully accounting roles soon.
i worked part time dong the register at coffee express before covid
If you count all the various part time jobs, so many.
ohh many its a lot lol. and likely ill have more in the future. at least more than 10 at this point

@PeacefulRainDrop so did you kids sing any camp songs? share scary stories or anything like that?
Yes stupid songs that made them laugh like there's a hole in the bottom of the sea.
Yes scary stories anyone could talk say what they were feeling
@PeacefulRainDrop well sounded fun! i never went to any camps myself. a couple retreats perhaps but we didn't stay in tents, more like cabin rooms
Yup same here
I love camping tho!
2 I always quit though I decided to take a year off and sleep at the park I’ll go back to work next year

Yes. You are my inspiration.
I think you like me a little too much.
I like you way too little, trust me.

I like you as a frenemy, nothing more. I know that must be hard to hear, but it's the truth.
