Hello! It's time again for Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4, and I am happy you stopped by to join in.This week's idea for questions came from Pamela Steiner, and it's all about your occupation and work.
I think that's a great idea, so here are questions for you to ponder.
1. What did/do you do for work, and how long did you work in that position? I have most often been a business manager/accountant/human resources manager/and operations director. Yes, I wore all of those hats for the last 20 years of my working life at Polk Museum of Art.
2. Of the jobs you've had throughout life, which was your favorite? The museum. If no favorite, which was the worst? The worst was cleaning rooms at a motel, part-time right after high school. Tell us why you loved/hated your job. I loved the job at the art museum because I wanted to be an art teacher at one time. Working in an art museum was the next best thing! The cleaning job was just nasty. Some people are just pigs. (Sorry!)
3. What did your job entail? Did it require a special education? #1 kind of answers this question. I did get my BA degree in Organizational Management, but that was after I was hired at the museum for my experience in business and non-profit accounting.
4. List all the jobs/occupations you have had.
Baby-sitting;
dipping ice cream at an ice cream parlor;
cleaning rooms at a motel;
front office of a furniture store;
