Various jobs through the university.

But I'd never want to work for the Daily. Too many issues with that Journalism department. Yuck.

Fall of '03: Import Cars (mechanic shop in the old Do-Boy elevator)
Spring 04: Reiman Gardens
Spring 05: Reiman Gardens
Fall 05: Tradehome Shoes
Fall 05-Spring 07: Donated plasma

I quit working regular jobs, and started donating plasma as it paid the beer bills, brought in as much $ as a 10hr/week job, and I could study while doing it.

I worked at Ames Golf and Country Club in the pro shop the summers of '04 and '05. Best job on the planet for a college kid who likes to be around golf. Free golf on Mondays for employees and free meals from the kitchen.

For one week in 1999 Campus Bookstore, worst job I've ever had. They treated their employees like **** and during textbook rush and the ones that put up with it might get a permanent job.

Fall 2000: University Bookstore
Summer 2000: Won Up Productions Internship
Fall 2000 - Spring 2001: Finance 350 Help Lab

I worked for Rec Services as a Referee and Supervisor for all 4.5 years of my college career. It's a great job. I loved it. I made fun of a lot of bad athletes while I was there also. I also gave plasma and did any psych studies I could do that would pay me.

AmeriHerb...best job ever. We drank from lunch on every Friday and since we supplied Old Main with a lot of their ingredients, we got to test growlers of new beer all the time fresh from the new batch.
