Where I have been... (Part II)

Last time, I was talking about basically the first half of my career...and where I have been. Now, let's look back.
There were a couple of things I left out--completely by accident. I worked at a gas station for a brief period. But as I look back, between 1997-1999 was the time period when I worked at the most number of jobs. I wasn't at all satisfied with the jobs I had. I never settled, although my favorite job from this period was my stints in the call centers, I still wasn't satisfied for one reason or another.

Once I left my last job being the call center in December of 1999, I took a brief break from the job market to return home and go back to writing. When I did--I spent a lot of time at both the Parsons branch and the Main Library. More specifically, the Media Center at Main. I spent a lot of time there--writing, so I had a conversation with a man named Jim. That conversation ended up with me working here at Main.

Back in the Summer of '00, my new life in a library began.
  • 2000-2001 PT Clerk 1*
  • 2001-2004 FT Customer Service Associate*
  • 2004-present FT Customer Service Specialist*
*Note: In 2001, the Clerk 1 positions were reclassified into the CSA position. In 2004, the CSS position was created when the LTA position and the CSA positions were reclassified.

In the time I have been here, I have witnessed a number of changes, and even I have changed as well. I can only hope that I continue to enjoy what I do.
