jan45: Artist?What kind of paintings did you painted?

Now, Jan, why you dont ask about the Interesting things I did?......

Like armature winding ? ..... I had NOT A CLUE what I was doing!
Shorthand Typist .... but no-one ever asked me to take any shorthand!
Bank Managers Secretary ........ I only remember walking around the bank delivering memos, and wearing smart clothes.
Assistant Buyer in a cosmetic factory ....... I well remember all the Free-Bees I got - even used expensive Anti-Wrinkle creams on my feet!
The Newspaper job was a GAS! It was my occupation, my free-time, my social life!
Petrol Garage and workshop co-owner - I only remember trying to get people to pay their bills! and writing out Enormous Cheques for petrol deliveries (not a patch on what is paid These Days! Filled a Valiant tank for about Euro 20cents!)
Ratepayers/School Committees/Town Councillor = Learnt that Politics is a Dirty Game!
Property Sales - The Way to Make Money - If you work Realy Hard 24/7/365!
Dance Instructor - A way to get Free Sea Cruises!
Small Farmer - How to lose weight, get fit, and get robbed and attacked - in SA!
Coffee Shop Owner - Learn how many people are suffering from Depression!
Artist - Escapism! .... and money when people like what you paint!
Suicide Intervention work - A natural progression from owning a Coffee Shop!

The art story ..... that continued for a while ... I attended an AGM and got voted into the position of "Art Aquisitor" for their Art Museum ... what a gas, again, spending the ratepayers money on stuff I liked, helping artists - and giving tourists something to gaze at.

Ah well, now I see why you asked the question in the thread, so you could beat us all with your list.

All at the same time?

Naked?

With a naked lady in front of you going 'Mmmmmmmmmm!'?

With a naked lady volleyball player who is saying:

'I know what you mean by 'Yes' - take me! take me NOW!'?
