I have a total of four jobs:
I'm a graduate assistant at my university, teaching 1-2 writing courses per semester for about the amount of money a full professor would pay to get a cavity filled.
I also work part-time at the university library in the government documents section, handling documents SO BORING that they have to be quarantined to avoid civillian casualties.
In addition, I write a weekly opinion column for the school newspaper, which net about enough to buy a used CD per column. But seeing my name and picture in print is more important, ego-wise, anyway.
Finally, during breaks and vacations, I work in the stockroom of a college bookstore, occasionally going out to do things on the sales floor. This is brute force labor, but it also means a lot of free bookage when we throw things away.
I have the unusual distinction of still being employed in every job I've ever had, since the bookstore job began as my high school summer job, and my library job began as my at-school job. Between the four of them, I make just about enough money to squeak by.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
