1. I used to fit/sell bikinis!

Not embarrassing, per se, but some interesting situations did arise...

[HEyHEY]

2. nah...I've been lucky

[patdem]

3. Yes..at age 22 upon my divorce I went to a bar to get drunk

that bar talked me into becoming a dancer w/pasties..and while dancing w/pasties one fell of..and I was very embarrased that the pasty fell off. I quit. But I continuted to go to the bar to get drunk. When there, some men came and sat at my table and referred to some woman that danced and the pasty fell of and she was embarrased as if the pasty hid something. As humulated as I was dancing..and then talking to these men..I said..hey...I was that girl. Though they backed off regarding the 'false' modesty I totally understood what they were saying.

PS...these men, being very well dressed and staying at a 4 star hotel tried to get me to 'come' with them and they could 'set me up'...for what...I was a woman...divorced...lost...who was talked into dancing...I was not some desperate woman looking to make a million on her body...

I am currently 50 something...so this is OLD OLD OLD crap to me!

But Tampa has learned to not to piss Joe Redner off but WhistleAss is still learning

Redner, friends sue over rights at rally

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TAMPA - Nude club owner Joe Redner and two friends filed a federal lawsuit Tuesday objecting to the circumstances that led to their arrests last year outside a rally for Gov. Jeb Bush's reelection.

In November, Redner, Jeff Marks and Adam Elend stood with protest signs outside the University of South Florida Sun Dome, where President George W. Bush was speaking at a rally for his brother. The Bush campaign called the rally a private event.

Hillsborough sheriff's deputies ordered the protesters to confine their activity to a protest zone hundreds of yards away on Fowler Avenue, but they refused.

....cut...

this could get interesting ...

4. I used too...

Write peoples names and draw little pictures on grains of nice fat basmati rice, then put the single rice kernal in a little glass vial with oil, and attach it to a chain or leather string to wear around the neck. Right on the streets. I worked in Holland and in Trafalgar square in London. Made enough to buy my first sailboat.

I loved selling grains of rice to Dutch people (notoriously cheap) for ten bucks a pop! Trafalgar Square was pretty intense, and I ended up writing in Arab, Chinese, Japanese, Thai... you name it.

In those days, I told my dad over the phone that I was still writing, (I am a journo by education). I just didn't tell him it was on grains of rice.

I later told him the whole story of course.

5. great story, dutchdem

6. For the most part...

There are no embarrassing jobs. If you need the job and the money, and it's legal then I admire you for having it. (I can think of exceptions of course... palm readers, psychics, evangelists)

Right now I'm unemployed but working part time jobs as they arise (as well as balloon twisting for corporate parties), and I just repeat the great advice that Steve Martin got in "The Jerk" before he left home - Lord loves a workin' man; don't trust whitey; see a doctor and get rid of it.

7. most jobs are embarrassing to me..

i hate working.

only job i ever had that wasn't embarrassing was teaching guitar. too bad i hated it by the time i quit.

i've working in hotels, construction, restaurants.. service jobs suck because people really look down on you.

8. I had a interesting top secret job

I was testing the shelf life and properties of a fake bodily fluid. The consumer products company that I tempted for wanted to patent it so that they could use the fake bodily fluid for their tests instead of the real thing. Some people might find that embarassing but I signed a paper saying that I wouldn't tell anyone about it or I could be sued or put in jail. I hope that I am being vague enough that they don't come find me.

11. I worked in a carnival dunking booth for two seasons...

actually, it was, in many ways, a dream job

[Skittles]

12. I WORK FOR CORPORATE AMERICA

the worst of all

[NJCher]

14. oh well, OK...

If that's an embarrassing job, try this: I once was the PR person for Ronald McDonald. Yessirreee, there were about 13 Ronalds and they made appearances all over the place. I had to be the "front man," making sure the appearances were well publicized and that people would show up with their kids. I also had to publicize the Hamburgler and other McD's characters.

The Ronalds were crazy. One time at a convention they got drunk in their hotel rooms and picked a fight with some Hell's Angels. Try spinning that one.
