    Default Your best job to date

    Out of all the jobs you have had, which one was best?
    I've only had 3 jobs, but my last one was the chillest job ever. I served at a Japanese restaurant for about half a year and got paid under the table every night. I made at least $60/night; it doesn't sound like much, but if you're not a needy person, it's plenty enough. Even when it was busy, I just loved working. It was a fun environment to say the least. And you?

    Sitting in our office in Paris right now. I'd say this is my best job ever. Wouldn't have been here 6 years if it wasn't.


    I'm an accountant. Head of finance for the American division of a European software company.

    My current job. Not only do I love my job and the ease for which it is. But I get paid very well. Plain and simple. I drive a couple of hundred or less miles to a location, drop my trailer, hook to another and bring it back to Atlanta to drop off and go home. That's it. Later, QD.

    My current "job" as a stay at home Mom is probably my favorite by far; however, if I had to pick a job out of home, it would be my parts manager position at a motorsport dealership.

    Working for the UGA library is the best job I have had. I've been here for a year and a half. The salary's not that great but I get 8hrs of free tuition a semester all the way through grad school. Can't beat that with a stick.
