Hey Mylotters, most people equate their job with life, so I want to know, what is the most interesting job you've ever had in your whole life. For me it was when I worked as a phone counselor. I got to listen to a person's problems and or situation then I prayed with and for them. I could not believe that I was actually getting paid money for doing what I enjoyed doing. So are you getting paid at your regular job for doing something that you enjoy? If so I would love to hear about it. Thanks in advance. Happy mylot!

Caddying at a duplicate bridge club? It didn't pay much, but I could do my homework between chores!

About this one i have to say it would have to be the one i did for a ahort time at a call center....those days i spend there were the best days of my life...you gotta meet the new peoples...and the most interesting part was working at the night...when everybody around you is sleeping you are working and when everybody is working you are sleeping...it's like you are living the life in reverse order....and another interesting part was talking to the costumers and convincing them to buy your products....you have to talk to the people you have never seen and probabably you'll never see...this can sometimes become very hard with some costumers as they intentionally tends to make you angry...but most of the times they are friendly....and you got to enjoys the night with your friends...it's very intersting indeed.....

I am doing something very interesting and that is trying to make money on the internet. It is very time-consuming but if you do something right then it makes you feel good. Cheers!!

I'm 61 years old and have had a lot of different jobs. I can;t pick the best but 2 of them stand out! I used to install assembly lines in the auto industry, the whole thing including the robots and tooling and the transfer systems that was great seeing all the changes and advancement in technology as time went along! The second in the tie for first was ( I'm currently laid off) installing perimeter anti terrorist systems, mostly secret things for the military and the state of New York, this is truly fascinating and very advanced technology! Have a Good one! tdemex

I think that teaching children art at my local library during a one shot summer art class special was the most interesting job I have ever had. Not only did I get the chance to inspire some kids I got to see what the artists of tomorrow will be like! It was a little scary and a lot of fun!

I guess being a server had to be my most interesting job. I'm telling you, when you work at a restaraunt, you see some of the craziest things ever! People yell at you for no reason, sometimes you get stiffed out of a tip or even a check, sometimes you get a table full of really awesome people... it's like never a dull moment! I really enjoyed being a server.
Also, my part-time job now is pretty interesting. I actually just started up a photo business the beginning of this year. So, I get to photograph all sorts of people. The children are crazy, running all over the place and rarely ever cooperating! But it's good when you get pictures that people really love and it makes the job worthwhile!
The full-time job I have now I do not enjoy at all. All I do is sit at a desk all day and type and file things. Boring! The people I work with are ok but I cannot imagine doing this for 30 years. I will definitely have to get my photo business up and running to its full potential!
