So at 44, I have a summer job. I'm watching a friends' 6-yr-old son 3 days a week. This in addition to my own 3, 6 & 9-yr-olds. And just because I'm a masochist, we had my nephew's girl(2nd cousin?)over today. Talk about a flippin' 5-ring circus...
[insane clown smilie here]
Edit: Oh, yeah- so post your summer job or related stories, real or imagined, here.

| | Supporting The Gold | | Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Twin Cities - MN | | | I've been out of work for four f*g years! Partially because of this, my wife and I decided day-care this summer is just too costly. So it's me and my 7yo daughter Mon-Fri, plus her best friend (another 7yo girl) Mon&Tues. No pay; just doing what a father/husband/friend should...I guess.
(sigh) Man, do I wish I had a life.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Wales, UK | | | meh, my saturday job is an all year round thing, I get some extra shifts in the summer though. sales assistant at boots (its like the UK version of Target, but with more food and makeup).
but I am doing voluntary work for the ol' CV this summer - one week in a nursing home, and two weeks at the 'cure for the common cold' research centre... upping my total lab work to 4 weeks (the other 2 being in the molecular bio lab at the university, doing stem cell research - which sounds more complicated than it actually was [just consisted of shoving pipes down placentas and pumping them full of saline, and harvesting the blood] ) , and one week of nursing.
