Best/Worst/Funniest job
Kelly: The worst job I ever had was when I worked for the law firm. I loved everyone there but one specific attorney. This attorney made EVERYONE miserable!! My best job is my current job when things are calm 😂
Emile: My best job is properly the one I currently have. I get to help business owners find success online through their websites, and seeing that success always brings a smile to my face.
The worst job I had was at a very famous record store chain in the mid-2000s. I was in college back then so I needed some money. It was a stress-inducing job where the managers just sucked. I left several months after I started because the owner of that particular store gave me an ultimatum when I couldn't make an inventory day - they closed the store for a day to count and unpack the inventory. She said, verbatim, that I had to make a choice between college and my job. I naturally chose college, and it was a good choice because that whole chain of stores went bankrupt and closed up shop about 5 years later.
The funniest job I had was when I worked at a liquor store just after college. A guy I knew bought this place and he needed someone to help out, so I volunteered. It didn't pay well, but I used that money to hold me over when I started freelancing. It was situated in a really bad part of the city where I grew up, but I met some really cool, truly genuine people when I worked there. Also, we laughed a lot and it didn't really feel like a "job" either, if the makes sense.
Carter: Im lucky enough to say that I really dont have a "worst" job. I guess physically the tree work was grueling but I worked with an extremely nice, efficient, and safe crew. Best job ive had has to be any professional film job I've had. Every experience has been a learning experience no matter what job ive had though. For instance... im doing night shifts at a hotel in order to get film production work during the day...yes my sleep is messed up but I now have some wild hotel stories to incorporate into film as well just the fact that this job allows me to do what i love when im not working. I heard my dad once say that "if you cant get paid to do what you love in the moment, do something that allows you to pursue your love outside of work." This hotel job is doing exactly that for me.

Forgot to tell you- on Sunday night, B told me “you know what? I like food better than toys”
Later that night, when I was snuggling with him in his bed, he put his hand on my face and said “Do you know what I love even more than food and toys? You and Daddy”
