This is the envelope that was waiting for me on my desk on Friday when I arrived at work.
I love being an Office Lady! Last year I was notified that because of budget cuts I would be changing jobs. I was really bumbed... but who knew that I would love this job the most out of ALL the jobs I've had! I now am a front office Secretary at a middle school working 4 hours a day. It's the funniest, craziest job ever! In the short 4 months that I've been here I have encountered many sick children. Some of whom have felt comfortable enough to throw up in my presence. I've encountered the wounded children from food fights. The occcasional wetting of the pants. The way too peppy cheerleaders. Everyday brings a new adventure and a new laugh. It's a good place to be.
Thinking about it now, I have had some interesting jobs!
Jobs of the past... the good the bad and the ugly:
1st job: Babysitting
2nd job: Housecleaning
3rd job: Safeway Bagger
4th job: Dr. Office Secretary (Filer and Scanner)
5th job: Graphic Designer

10th job: Curriculum Department Secretary
11th job: Middle School Front Office Secretary

Missy! I'm so glad you are an "offce lady." Really though, all those kids need to see a helpful friendly face when they are coming to the office for sickness or questions or trouble or whatever reason. I wish you were the office lady at my kids' school!
Tee hee. I totally forgot about the car counter job. . . and the printer tester. You have good stories from those. . . who am I kidding, you have good stories from ALL your jobs!
Funny post, Sis. See you TOMORROW!
I SHOP AT A CHEAP GROCERY STORE WHERE YOU HAVE TO BAG YOUR OWN GROCERIES AND THE OYHER DAY i WAS LIKE , i SURE WISh mISSY WERE HERE i COULD USE SOME OF BAGGING SKILLS RIGHT NOW. i REMEMBER HOW MUCH YOU HATED THAT JOB.
"offce lady" does sound like a cool job. Hands down - the coolest of the lot. You should keep notes and write a book about the things you hear tweenies say. I'm sure it's hilarious!
