    In my younger days, I tried telemarketing, and was quite good at it. I had a friendly voice. I think a pet photographer would be pretty good, as I am good with pets, but it wouldn’t just be the conventional pets I guess, what if I have to like take a picture of a tarantula…gross. I played the accordian before, so an accordian teacher is not bad. It’s a big thin in other parts of the world, so I can find jobs elsewhere.

    Thanks for your comment, Don! You sound like a flexible guy who would do well in almost anything…except maybe as a spider trainer. LOL What is it with guys and spiders? Creeped out but fascinated.

    You forgot one. Online Marketing. Why? It’s like under water basket weaving. If you don’t drown you’ll make a buck…

    Hey! There’s nothing strange about “Onion Graders” — or ANY produce grader, for that matter. How do you think all the produce at the market get to be so perfectly uniform all the time?

    hmmm pet photographer maybe..they are nicer than most humans and they can’t talk! I do agree with the no spiders rule though.

    as far as telemarketing..i last only a while because harassing people is not my thing.
