Love the nun and her leggings dilemma! Thanks for the laugh.
I didn't exactly ever have what I thought of as a side job, but my first job out of college was as a clerk-typist in a government agency, and it really was kind of a side job till I got into book publishing, which was my goal. In fact, I've been planning to write about that soon. It was eye-opening for me, because I didn't grow up around adults who were living for the weekend. More to come!
Well, it was kind of mundane — but that's part of the story! I was just thinking about it as I pondered the nature of work in our modern, capitalistic times.
<What side jobs have you taken while you were trying to get a “real” job?>
Thanks for jogging my memory. Fifteen years ago, I was the discussion board moderator for The Daily Show (Jon Stewart) and The Colbert Report. WORST. JOB. EVER. I'll post about this next week.
Look for it next week on my substack -- Lessons learned and all that. ;)

That job sounds very "Joe vs. The Volcano." Can't wait to hear more about it.

I had no idea! Sorry it was the worst job ever, but it still sounds cool to me.
Oh, that sounds like a fun read!
