Re: what jobs did u have as a HS/College?

in HS I was the afternoon & weekend receptionist for a Chiropractors office. I also started to bartend on the weekends as soon as I graduated HS. I did not go to college right away, but in between I always was a barttender but I did some other things too, like I was a hair colourist & chemical specialist for a N. Shore salon for a while. I also was an office manager for a stint too.
