What has been your best job?? What job have you really enjoyed?? What job would you like to do if you could?? I enjoyed being a nursery nurse but since I moved to the town that I live in I now havent found a job in a nursery. I am currently a cashier which isnt too bad, its nice chatting to all the various customers who come in.

I haven't work before. When I was child, I always dream I'll become a lawer to help everybody in the world. Now I'm a student of Law in my country. This May, I'll graduate at university. I hope I'll study MA in my country or abroad if I have scholarship. Now I'm trying more and more to change my dream come true.

The best job I have ever had had to be when I was working for Critical Mass Media. They are a marketing research firm that deal primarily with the radio music industry. what I liked most about that job was the music surveys. What was done was I would call different respondents in a particular Radio station's area, and have them rate songs as I played small clips of them on the phone. It was so easy, and I got exposed to many different types of music from that as well.

I am a qualified nursery nurse too but I cannot do that anymore because of my health! I have also worked for a computer manufacturer, in a newsagents in a shoe shop and in a supermarket amongst other things! I think my favourite though is the pub I worked in til last year , they are still holding my job for me until I am fit enough (hopefully to return) to work! QWhen I started working there it was part time and I worked full time in the computer factory as well - I hadn't long split up from my exhusband and I was trying to make extra money to make sure my son had all he needed. Over the years circumstances changed many times and they have always made sure that my hours were working in with my life and have always believed that my kids come first! Apart from making a lot of friends with customers and receiving a lot of support from them , my bosses are now good friends and part of my family! They do not let a week go by without seeing or speaking to me and are always on hand if I need a lift anywhere or have a problem - I so want to get back to work! xxx

I have also worked in a pub, it was my first job role!! Well I worked in the kids play area then slowly had a couple of bar/restaurant shifts. It was nice having that close family feeling with the staff even though I wouldnt class them as family. Hopefully you will return working at the pub, and you will wonder how they coped without you!! lol

My best job is being self employed because I can earn money in the way I choose, but the best employment I had probably would be when I worked for a publisher. I learned a lot about editorial work and publishing. Later I worked in bookstores and I enjoyed being in charge and selecting which books to sell.

I which I could be self employed!! I can choose hours to suit me, and be my own boss! Working in a bookstore must have been fun as you can also read the books!!

I only had two jobs so I would prefer the second one since I am learning a lot here. Also, it is inline with my course. Good day.

i enjoyed being one of the music executive in a recording or music company because i get to listen to all sorts of music and i pick out the ones that i like and make it a hit song. i get to meet a lot of artists and celebrities. i get to go in club for free and don't spend anything. everything is in face value. i get a lot of perks when i was a label manager for a recording company.

The most fun I ever had at a job was One which I didn't get paid for at all. It was a Charitable Christmas program. Designed to bring the message of God and peace to people. It was hard for me , because I can not read Music.I really struggled with that , but I have an exceptionally-keen ear for music , and I pick it up really fast. If you give me One or two hints...Boom! I've got it. It was very rewarding to perform on Stage and make so many people happy. Any Contributions made to the Music Spectacular were used towards next years costumes and such. But all performers gave 100% of themselves , and were rewarded with applause. It was Awesome!!!!!!!

My best job ever, has to be the last job that I had and that was a carer for the elderly. I started off as a domestic cleaner, but when I saw the carers and what they did I immediately wanted to do that and as soon as I heard that a job came up for a carers position then I was first in the queue, I remember when they told me that I had it I was so chuft that I just had to run to the toilets and do a victory dance!! The hours were long, 12 hour shifts, but I loved it.

I cannot tell you my best job ever as I am not at the end of my work life but I can tell you the best job to date! I know, semantics... My best job to date would have to be my previous assignment in which I learned a great deal and contributed more. I had the authority and autonomy to make decisions and responsibility to stand accordingly.

My best job ever was working as a PA secretary to a really lovely small Patent and Trademark company in London. The company now doesn't exist, as the Directors retired and had to close the company down, being as it was a small concern with just a handful of staff. The bosses were wonderful, respectful and considerate. Very pleasant people who always thanked me for whatever I did. They had a sense of humour and didn't put themselves up on a pedestal as people above me, or the rest of the staff. The work was hard, but very interesting and absorbing, and I was allowed to work in my own way without any managerial interference. It was so good to be treated as a person, and not a money-spinner for the bosses, or a cog in a wheel. It was sad it had to come to an end, but life moves on.
