While trying to add links to all of my past jobs and the present one, I realized most of the places have gone out of business and do not have a website to link you to! So here is a little listing of all the jobs I have had.
General Cinema Intracoastal 8 Theatres
North Miami Beach, FL
I worked here for four years all through-out high school. I loved that place. It went out of business because all of GCC pulled out of the Southern part of the U.S.A., I do believe they still have theatres in California though. The link to their site is above if you want to check it out.
Icy's Ice Cream
North Miami Beach, FL
I worked here while working at the movie theatre. This was a really fun job for me until drama hit. I loved working around all of the ice cream and the people who came in. I worked for a gay couple who were really sketch though. We got robbed by three Haitian people and they wigged out and lied to the cops about tons of money that was never even at the store. Then they had a fist fight at the store (which watching two very flamboyant gay men fight was too funny for words) because they were freaked out that we got robbed. Needless to say I left the store after that. They tried to stiff me on my last pay check too but I told them I was going to bust them about their lies to the fuzz and they coughed up the money! Sgortly after that they went out of business.
Kids Mart
North Miami Beach, FL
This was a very interesting job. I enjoyed working with all the little kids and helping their parents pick out clothing and stuff. It tought me a lot about retail because I had never worked at it before. I think this job was really cool for a long time. I worked here while I worked at the movie theatre. There were a few locations and I liked it a lot. They started closing stores so I left there before we got shut down.
Video Avenue
North Miami Beach, FL
This job I really had a good time with. I worked here basically from a month after they opened their doors until college got really hectic and my internship in radio turned into a job. I learned a lot of things about movies here too. I kept this job while working at the movie theatre as well. Shortly after I left this job they sold out to Hollywood Video, which is pretty huge now.
Telemarketing
North Miami Beach, FL
I cannot remember the name of this company. I was hired on to highlight names and cut out address. I am not sure why I was suppose to do all of this but that lasted two weeks. I was so bored I couldn't deal. I was only doing it because I had some spare time between the two jobs I was working...lol.
Data Entry
North Miami, FL
I got this job through a friend of my family. My friend Kim, and I worked here together for a few months while we were in high school. They just needed two people to enter a bunch of data for them. It was great experience because we had to type and fast. It really helped out clerical skills and such. We enjoyed our supervisor Ed (he was burnt) and the free snacks and soda provided for us. Too bad they only needed two people untill all their numbers were entered...we should have dragged that out longer.
Power 96
Miami, FL
This is now my home. It is a big part of my everyday life and it really helped shape me. I am much more diverse now then I ever was. I am the webmaster (check out the link above), the public service director, a producer and I voice, write and mix down commercials here.
Okay so there you have it. 99% of the jobs I worked at. I left out the flower shop because I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it. I answered phones and took orders and such. I think that is why I now love flowers...kind of spent so much time around them...how could you not.
Notice I have never gotten fired? Notice how once I left most of these places have gone under? What can I say I was a pilar...without me they fell...lol. Okay maybe not but I am a work-a-holic to say the least!
