Get to Know Rachel D'aigle, Vol 5: Oh The Things I've Done to Make a Living!

I started writing this post thinking it would be simple, and then realized that I have held MANY jobs over the years. I thought I'd share what this fantasy writer has done to make a living, before becoming a nearly full time writer.
I ended up separating the list into groups, to make it easier for myself to remember them all!

As a young girl / teen and up until College:

Baby Sitter
Blueberry Raker
Apple, Bean and Corn and Potato Harvester
Hay Bailer
Garden Weeder
Museum Greeter
Museum Receptionist
Shrink Wrapper
Wool Carder
Singer

During College:

Concert Promoter
Ticket Seller
Museum Inventory
Slide Organizer
Student Government
Store Clerk
Sandwich Maker
Donut Maker (Dunkin Donuts ... Yes, Its time to make the Donuts! Remember that commercial?)
Coffee Maker
Pizza Maker (Little Caesars Pizza)
Museum Usher

After College, and therefore after moving to Salt Lake City, UT from Maine :

Dog Walker
Dog Sitter
Burger Maker at Hires Big H. 
Boutique Gift Seller / Maker / Crafter
In-layer for Guitar Head Stocks
Mosaic Artist
Singer
Music Booking Agent and Promoter
Resume Writer
Article Writer
Website Creation
Book Reviewer
Continental Airlines, Customer Service and sooooo many other jobs! 


So there's the list! Wow! Do I feel old now :)

And there are more that I will inevitably remember over the next few weeks, but that gives you an idea of things I have done over the years to make ends meet. I'm not quite a full time author yet... I'm about 3/4 of the way there! And that's thanks to all of you!!! :)

What kinds of jobs have you held over the years?
