4. I work a graveyard shift
... I work at a place called Meadow Lake Village. It is a large, pretty high-end retirement community that includes independent condo living, assisted living, and a neighborhood of planned housing, all managed by the company which plans activities, events, dining and all sorts of stuff for neighbors and residents.

I am part of the Concierge team, but I work the night shift at the front desk. So my biggest responsibility is to be on -call in case of emergency. All condos have emergency pull cords in the rooms and alarms if a phone is off the hook - those go to my pager and I respond in case a resident is having a medical emergency. So I had to be CPR certified for that part.

In addition, I do some light security around the premises at night. All in all a very quiet job. It works for me because I am in graduate school, and when there are no emergencies I can do homework here (they are ok with that, because its usually very quiet on my shift.)

One more to go hee hee! :)
