# 22 – Jobs I have Held

I’ve held lots of jobs.  When I was little (around 5 years old), I got to clean the milk holding tank.  Mom would put me inside and give me the scrubber and I would walk around and scrub it clean.  Then it was rinsed. I think my pay was a dime.  Other jobs on the farm included, feeding cows, cleaning out the calf pens, pulling tansy ($1 per bag), stacking hay bales (pay was a day old calf to raise), gardening, mowing lawn, and baking.

Most of those were probably considered “chores”.  I did pick strawberries for a couple of seasons at Ticknors.  I also did babysitting jobs.

My official working history is as follows:

·       Kitchen Aid, Centralia General Hospital (1976-1978) – part-time after school
·       Secretary to Arts Dept Head, Centralia Community College (1978-1979) – part-time before & after school
·       Bookkeeper, Halvorsen’s Landscaping (1979) – part-time after school

·       Financial Analyst 5, Dept of Information Services (-Sept 2011) – Job Class conversion
