  • I got modernized out of being a parttime worker at the library, when they switched from barcodes to RFID and they didn’t need someone to scan the books anymore.

    Which was kinda sad, because while that was boring, helping people find stuff was great. It’s been nearly 20 years and I still can’t stand an unalphabetised bookshelf, or one where the spines don’t line up.

    Nowadays, I’m a safety consultant, and I get to fire clients. The most fun one was when they copied my signature on a plan that I specifically told them was illegal. I found out when I got a letter saying I committed environmental crimes for agreeing to said plan.










  • So, when I was in college I made a specific sort of (very very niche) video or audio, for pay. That’s maybe 15-20 years ago.

    It was actually pretty fun, but I never did anything in person, which probably helps. I’m (or was) not nearly as good looking as the women here, but I met the highly niche requirements and got paid pretty well.

    Better than my parttime job in the library (no, that’s not the niche).
