I currently work for a property management company, doing various tasks. My job should probably be divided between 2-3 people, but what can ya do. I coordinate all the maintenance that needs to be done in our properties (400+), answer the phone, file, some accounting, and much more. It pays the bills for now, but it's not a forever job for me.

What pays your bills?

  • I'm a CNA at the University of New Mexico Hospital. I float to all the various units of the hospital and I am primarily a patient care tech, but I occasionally play the role of a "sitter." Basically, babysitting misbehaving patients who are flight risks, suicide watches, have altered mental status, etc.

    Do you enjoy your job? It sounds very interesting. I was going to school to become an MA, but decided it wasn't the right fit for me. I have a couple of friends who are patient care techs and they really seem to like it.

    I sell beer.

    Ok, a little more complicated than that, but I'm the Executive Assistant for a beer distributor. Our flagship brand is Anheuser-Busch but we have several other breweries we represent as well, and some non-alcohol brands too. Kinda the best job ever!
