Lol, I know its wrong to laugh at stuff like that, but its still kinda amusing.
this seems as good a third post as any... ya, I'm a cashier too, lol. at a supermarket. people are funny/adorable/despicable/interesting/idiots...yep. i work like 20 hrs a week, thinking about cutting down though... the job is too...mechanical...for me, i guess. I don't get to mess with the customers enough
Agreed. I remember once I got to get out from behind the register and return a few items to the shelves, and it was like the world returned to color. It's incredibly mind-numbing, even without having to talk to idiots all day. Very few people bother to have an engaging conversation with their cashier, so the most I usually get to say for hours at a time is "thank you have a nice day"
Looking desperately for another job. :| ANY other job. Even preparing greasy sleaze food is more stimulating than scanning bar codes

Medical intern, and loving it. It can be total hell though, when you're working working insanely long shifts and getting to see some really, really nasty/crazy/despicable patients, but it's part of the job.
I used to be a judo instructor before I started as an intern, but my schedules fudged it up mostly but I also lack the energy to do it at the side. I really miss that job and I might do it next to being a doctor if I don't end up working at a hospital (like general practitioner, sports doctor).

Hip hop teacher for the lil kids xD
I teach 7 year olds hip hop, and we're currently working on their end of the year routine.
It's so much fun :D ... When they listen o.O

Substitute Teacher, $100 dollars a day. I choose when I work. Plus health benefits. I'm also a Student. Also, working on opening my own Gaming/Pokemon Store
Cashier.
It sucks, but after almost three years it is second nature and I can deal with the pretentious people who look down on people who work at grocery stores.
I am trying to find another job so that I can move out next year. Currently my mother sleeps on the couch so that I can have my personal space, and plus I want privacy and freedom.

I have not; a quick Google informs me it will be either one of those awesome life-affirming books (like Siddhartha - IF ANYONE WHO IS READING THIS POST HAS NOT READ THIS BOOK THEY MUST READ IT. QUICKLY) or one of those terrible, pissant faux-optimism books that makes me want to puke my spleen out through my arsehole.
So yes, um, back to work next week! Which is yunno, ironic as I now have a cold.
P.S. I worked as a cashier in a supermarket once. NEVER AGAIN. In the end they had a letter from my psych saying I needed to be moved off the tills, so they put me on shelf-stacking alcohol. They weren't very stringent, I just used to walk out with a bottle or two of wine and go and get stoned at my friends house, stumbling back around the end of my shift to clock off.
This was a major UK supermarket, too.. aah. Good times.
I'm unemployed. I don't have a definite summer job lined up yet either.
I worked as a lifeguard at a water slide last summer, but I hated it mostly because my supervisor was a jerk. I don't think I will be going back there even though they will probably call me. And now I'm reluctant to renew my CPR certification. I've also worked as a dishwasher at a summer restaurant, but the pay was bad and it was too far from my home to justify the gas expenditure.

Unemployed. I'm a first-year university student, though. I'm an English major. Blah, blah. I plan to get a job in virology one day, though, so I'll end up transferring eventually. I'm currently in limbo at the moment, in that I dropped out of high school at 15 to go to university knowing I'd have to do English. Still, very preferable to the shitholes that made me severely depressed!
