M'kay, it's summer. That means people who go to school are now working. If you work, what do you do? You can rant about it here, if you want, as long as there's no boss flaming... *wink*

I usually work during school. I babysit for a boy after school till around 6:00 every day. I also do other side baby sitting jobs and I also used to work at an exotic fowl/ game c.ock farm, but I haven't been there in awhile. I may work there again this summer.

I work at a program at the elementary schoool by my house. I am a student aide and I do get paid. Work starts at 8:30 and ends at 12:30.. I usually stay late cause the teacher I am working with takes me and we go and get lunch..

"I work. I don't get paid, but I work. snrk... At a STABLE!!! WOOT!"
I work at a stable and I don't get paid either! (It could be because the stable, well if you would call it that, is my own house. lol) Actually, the horses aren't even the hard ones to care for! I just give them hay (unless they have a round bale) and their sweet feed. It's the chickens, rabbits, goats, and pig that are a pain in the butt to feed. When I go into the goat/pig pen to feed them, they climb all over me, step on my feet, and get me all muddy! The rabbits have to have their cages cleaned every day and they insist on getting pet and the chickens are always jumping all over me for their food and water! LOL! But I love them anyway!

Yeah, I ride Western, well not exactly "western Pleasure" like in the shows, but it is western lol. I have a speed saddle and I love doing speed work type stuff and I love trailriding! I'm hoping to do well in the barrel racing and Pole Bending competition at our fair this year. I do have a picture of my horse somewhere. I will have to dig it up out of photobucket.
Do you do English or Western? I know down South there are a lot more Western riders then English. Up here it is almost ALL english and it gets annoying. When I used to compete, I would be like one out of maybe 5 western people competing in certain classes. I still don't think the numbers have evened out.

*is jealous*
I may get payed for my jobs (plural...ewww), but they aren't really that awful fun. I work in my school's copy shop. All of the machinery in there is possessed. Especially the shadow-spawned shrink-wrapper. It's evil.
Monday through Wednesday of next week I get to work in a fireworks stand... which is nearly a dream come true. But they told me I couldn't smoke... *snicker* Or light the garbage can on fire. I told them I'd try not to.
I'm also working for a couple of camps this summer, no pay. But it'll be fun, anyway. Counseling is always fun.

Oooo...that does sound like fun, Dun!
Silv, I ride English...*wince* Do I get hit with something now? LOTS of people who ride in local shows here (where I live) ride Western. Some do both. There is no hatred, but there is...competition...something like that. And Ooooo, I love to watch speed classes! *hopping up and down* Yes! But I'm a jumper girl... ; )

LOL! No, you don't get hit with something! I used to ride English myself, until I switched. I was just more into the "western" look. Most of my friends ride english, and yeah, we tease eachother a bit, but it's all in good fun! I'm not really prejudice like that, I just wish there were more western people up here.

Well I just got offered a job a few days ago. It was to work at a cafe and little shop in the center of town. So I called back the lady to say I was interested and the first number I called, I got no answer. Second number I tried, I got the wrong number. Third number I tried was a cell number she left and it wasn't on so I left a message. Well today, which is a few days later, I called again and I get some lady. She says the lady I'm supposed to talk to was busy and that she would call me later. Well, guess what. No calls. Man, I hate when this happens!!! It's kind of rude of her if you ask me...
Today I got offered another job working at the poultry farm I had been working at for awhile. I figure I will take the job since it pays well and I know how to do everything. Hey, getting $8 an hour for cleaning chicken coops ain't that bad....I guess. Plus I need to buy my male rabbit, Romeo, a rabbit hutch that is bigger than the one he is in now.
Oh well, I guess I'll update ya'll when I get a chance.
