Best/Worst Short-Term Job

Worst: Dishwasher at a restaurant in Glacier national park. Stayed all of three hours.

Best: That's a tough call. Probably when I ran my own photo studio. I was always psyched to go to work.

Worst: Working in a college bookstore, stocking shelves and doing inventory and crap like that. Ocasionally dealing with spoiled rich college kids.

Best: Working at the local mom and pop convenience store. I had gone there all the time as a kid, and now I was single handedly running the place for 8 hours at a time. I had regulars who would come in. We rented out movies that I would watch while waiting for customers. I'd make really good sandwiches to order. It was cool. Only time I didn't like it was when the boss went on vacation for a week, and I ran the place for 13 hours a day. I'd have to lock up just to go take a leak. That was a hard week.
