What was the best job you ever had and why?

I had a friend who got a job in a florest shop and learned a lot there. She didn't have college. But she was very happy there. I sent for and got the beginning of a learn at home flower arranging course. I had to drop out due to lack of money and time. She liked her job in the flower shop, air conditioning. She didn't have to do hard labor either. Maybe you could explore other options within your interests. There are also gardening centers that hire people and sometimes they'll train. Mostly watering and repotting, but every job provides more experience. Many job centers have books with a variety of occupations under interests that people have never thought of before. It's fun to go through them. Take care and here's wishing you that paid job that you love in the future. My friend's daughter house sits and she also does gardening for the home owner that usually includes flower garden(s) outdoors. There are all kinds of possibilites. Thank you for responding. Take care

Glad to be of service. Speaking of service, there is a housesitting website. I think if you search for it, you can find it on the internet. It lists people who house sit and people who need house sitters. It's house sitting classified adds. It starts with "Caretakers" and I don't remember the rest of the name of it. Take care and good luck. Let me know how you do.

Thanks for all the great info!! I will have to look into something like that. I live in Florida near the water, and there are a lot of wealthy people around here...I wonder if any of hem ever look for someone to 'house sit' when they go back up north for the summer, and take care of there plants, things like that...never thought about it before you said something!! And a flower shop would be great! I did not know that they had flower arranging courses. I applied at a few shops around here years ago, but they all told me the same thing, that I needed some sort of 'experience'. A course in flower arranging would surly be a good start!

You sound like a very motivated internet person. This is kind of fun. Mylotting and Heliumming are more like hobbies to me. But one person's hobby is another person's job. Glad you have a good time on your websites of your own creation. I've checked out a couple. You do good work. Take care

Thanks! I think I just love to create things and see if I could do it right! Moreover, we all know sometimes office work can really be boring and it's not so fun working for other's purses!

My Mother had a masectomy. I went with her when she went to be fitted. That is a very needed job now, though I wish it wasn't so needed. But people who do that job every day are very special. Thank you.

A job like Air Force without any job, no I don't know. Can you explain?

That sounds great! I wish something like that would happen for me. I, too, am discusted, at times, and would like my own business. But nothing I try gives me more than 1 day a week. I'll keep trying. Glad for you. Take care

That sounds like it was a wonderful job for you. Lots of different things to do. Busy, interested, and needed are wonderful feelings when you have a job. Too bad the store had to close. I bet you miss it. Thank you for your post, it's a good one.

Two and they were your own businesses. Wow, how cool. I wish I could get any of my interests to take off. Sounds like aircraft-related is really a good fit for the two of you. That's wonderful! Take care and let me know how retirement or sort-of works out.
