Counting Summer Jobs but not counting unpaid volunteer labor, I have; laid carpet, worked two different jobs as a cook, worked as an orderly in a general hospital, worked as a registered nurse in the same hospital, worked for 28 years in an other hospital retiring as one of the night supervisors of that hospital. I worked full time from 1972 till 2015. I was also a boy scout leader for a few years and a member of the Nordic ski Patrol for about 10 years. I highly recommend volunteer service as an educational experience.
