after spending a majority of my working career jumping from retail, manufacturing and gas station positions, i finally grew up and got a profession. a good friend of mine is a manager at our local newspaper and i found out he was hiring an entry position (pressman apprentice) and he gave me a shot. ive been there two months now, the pay is good(better than ive ever had) but will jump considerably once i leave the apprentice program, hopefully in under a year. only downside is i work 10pm to whenever we get done, usually 6 or 7 am. no holidays or weekends off since the paper comes every day. but its an enjoyable job and with my wife taking 4 months off when our baby comes, the extra income will help, currently we are enjoying the extra money while we can. i dont know if i love my job, but im not complaining. dream job would still be a radio dj, as lame as that is.
