Other options
There have been a number of people this week thinking (and blogging) about other career options. I have started checking out postdoc and job listings just to start to gauge what types of things are out there. Plus it is great procrastination for writing lectures! At least it is science related!
Well, all these things have got me thinking about the extreme lack of jobs I've ever had and what would really be other career options for me. There aren't that many and there are particularly few that I could actually do. Rockette? I'm too tall (really). As if that is the only thing keeping me from being a Rockette right? Anyways, here are my lists...
Jobs I've had:
Hardware store checkout girl
Dance teacher
Photo lab tech
Cowgirl at a theme park
College student tutor
Marine science camp educator
RA
TA
Jobs I've never want (Really way to many to name) :
Vet
Anything to do with cleaning
Anything where I have to be on the phone to people a lot
High school teacher (despite 3 years of being an ed major in undergrad)
Plumber
Military
Jobs I wouldn't mind:
Rockette
Choreographer
Photographer
Copy editor
Education department in a zoo or aquarium
Yoga/pilates instructor
Naturalist/outdoor guide
Beekeeper
Genetic counselor
Translator
Scuba instructor/divemaster
Academic/professor (I assume this should be on here since it is what I am working towards!)

Aw, come on now, teaching's not that bad! Unless you don't like kids... But then you wouldn't want to be a zoo/aquarium educator either, I guess. El Toro used to work for a beekeeper, and was a beekeeper for a while. It's a super-cool job, but backbreaking if you're doing it for a living.
Appreciaate you blogging this
