    1 summer at Hardee's.

    2 summers as a Girl Scout Camp Counselor....

    22 years of various forms of computer engineering from networking (yes, I helped build the Internet) to systems, to storage. Interesting stints include a contract to set pages in a rocket science book at the Air Force Academy... proofing procedures for software engineers for NORAD, rebuilding the backend systems for a funeral home organization, oh, and teaching San Diego politicians how to use their messaging systems. Let's just say what's going on out there is nothing new for them. :D

    Ski Hill - various jobs (never skiied though) at age 14
    University cafeteria - various jobs cooking etc. at Michigan State
    Banking - started as a teller in October 1989 making less than $5 an hour (lucrative degree huh?). Was in the branch until 1995 then worked in commercial credit, compliance and currently as a commercial loan officer. So almost 25 years.
    I worked at Home Depot for a while both as a 2nd job and then a 1st job when I was out of work in the plumbing department. Interestingly, I didn't and don't know a lot about plumbing. It was pretty easy to fake though and I enjoyed working there.
