Job Offers

Other jobs folks have offered me
During my time standing at a register at a farm store in the Midwest-
.
3 different teaching jobs:
-legit- it makes sense-
On the outside, it probably appears that I would ~logically~ want to go back to the career I hold two degrees in.
But I •absolutely• have no interest.
.
A local mobile snow-cone trailer:
I could figure this out, but I am always cold.
HOWEVER
if he converted it into an ice cream truck
WELL
Here is my my two week notice-
Let’s order a few larger pairs of jeans in preparation.
I have literally no control when chocolate ice cream is near by.
.
Farm insurance salesman:
Sounds painfully boring,
But maybe selling fear could be fun-
I mean you never know when pirates could invade the Midwest.
They could torch your barns and till salt through your fields and eat all your baby goats.
.
Fence builder:
He must be desperate. He should really take a look at my trellis work in my garden before offering me a job building anything straight and precise.
He wouldn’t be able to handle me.
.
Managing a greenhouse:
or at least the register at the greenhouse. He wasn’t super clear. But he said he would make it worth my wild.
I can talk gardening until I am blue in the face
WELL
At least until I get hungry.
And something in potting soil makes my heart sing and then I skip and twirl around.
I’ll save his number .just.in.case.
.
Personal trainer:
So weird.
I kinda think this “kid” was flirting. Thank goodness I didn’t pick up on it until much later.
.
Rodeo clown:
Actually, no one has offered me a job as a rodeo clown. Which is unfortunate because I might be perfect for it. I already have a red vest to dangle and whip around.
.
Things I think about while standing at a register and saying hello to everyone who walks in.
