For the last three I have worked part time from home doing the bookkeeping and payroll for a smallish maid service franchise and most of the time I am very, very happy with the setup I have. This is one of the best bookkeeping positions I have ever had. I did have some great gigs when I was doing contract work, usually for six months at a time. I have also worked some real crap positions for complete shitheads.
I am also semi-retired and draw Social Security.
Over the many years I have worked as a waitress, bartender (loved that job), asst manager of a night club, been a soldier, studied to be a medical assistant, grocery store cashier...all sorts of things. This job and some of my bartending gigs were the best.
I’m essentially retired (lots of lucky breaks along the road). I’ve been a musician, a luthier, and currently a blacksmith. I once held an appointed political position for a little under six weeks. Other than that and a teaching gig that lasted about a year, I’ve always been self-employed.
