What we do or did for a living

[Slanderz]

Okay here goes.

I’m a NY‘er born and raised. I’m a rolling stone (Gypsy at heart). The longest I’ve ever held a job is probably (almost) 2 yrs. ( I’ve never been fired) I’ll just get itchy feet resign and move on. My parents keep telling me that a rolling stone gather no moss…lol. I guess I’ve just never had a job that I didn’t get bored of.

List of places I’ve worked it too long…lol. So I will just say that I’ve done just about every thing, from being a Paralegal at MTA NYC Transit in the Law (compensation) Department. To being an ambulette driver for TransCare. From being a CDL driver for Coach USA to working retail in the souvenir shops at Yankee Stadium. From working as a team member at Target Corporation to working as a food Prep at Radio City. From working as a dispatcher at Maggie’s Para Transit to working as a School bus driver for Atlantic Express. From working as a clerk at MTA NYC Transit for their Electrical Coordination Program to working as a Real Estate Agent. From being a Manager at a small family owned Vending Machine Business to being the supervisor at a wholesale beverage warehouse (another family owned business) and the list goes on and on and on…lol.

The keywords to every job I’ve had is “Social Networking“. It’s not what you know. It’s who you know, and who they know.

(I leave for Aruba Feb. 14, 2011. This will be my 1st time on the island. I will be there one month.)

Lol. Many hats indeed Andrea. I do try to keep my resume on 1 page. I just get all the experience that is relevant to the job that I am seeking. Nail them on one page ( what fit's goes). That with a folder full of recommendations and references always seem to do the trick lol.
