Of All the Weird Things I’ve Worked On
By dragon on Feb 24, 2008 in Business
I’ve had a few weird jobs in my lifetime. I’ve worked for fisheries, synagogues, fast food restaurants, and the park service, each time doing oddball tasks that were seemingly pointless, but nonetheless highly valuable in the grand scheme of how the business operated. Since then, I have worked more conventional jobs, but I still have a summer gig working with New Haven pool builders that my father manages. It’s a great little gig that I spend about four or five weeks winding down doing. It might seem a little odd to spend the hot summer days laying tile when I’m supposed to be on vacation, but these guys are great.
If you’ve never worked with the Hartford pool builders or any of the other Connecticut pool contractors out there, then you have no idea just how much fun they can be on the job. You spend the whole time working but, the kind camaraderie that you develop with five other guys tearing up sod and dirt in someone’s backyard will never develop with the five men and women you share an office with who you can rarely, if ever, get to go to lunch, let alone say hi when you show up in the morning.
