Continuing on my current job searching theme I’ll continue to bore you guys with the details of what I’m seeing out there… and it ain’t pretty! Apparently I’m qualified for the following: cook, house cleaner, baby sitter, hair stylist, nurse, web cam star (oh yeah I’m sure the world wants to see these stretch marks), security officer, seamstress, realtor, teacher, apartment painter, waitress, sales, pool man, pizza maker and my own personal favorite: at home wine taster (which I’m pretty sure I might be already?) Wait these were just the listings for part-time in the job postings… Crap I think I might be going about this the wrong way…
Actually honest to God there was a post for “Gregarious wine tasters” to present wine to your fellow wine lovers and then you get commission on what they buy…. So you are basically inviting over your wino friends, getting them drunk and forcing them to then buy this wine to support your habit… seems about right to me J I’ve had jewelry, candle and “toy” parties in the past that always included lots of wine… this is like cutting out the middle man!! If these poor upscale wine makers in California only knew the screw top, 4 dollar bottle of Wild Vines that has been my favorite for years they would probably run screaming back to Napa and hide in their Spanish inspired, arch filled architecture. Since all I pretty much know about wine falls between “me likey adult juice” and “a whole bottle doesn’t go as far as is used to” I graciously passed on applying for this one… after all I can’t really afford to be a snob about wine and I’m really already high maintenance enough (just ask my husband)
The more I think about it, maybe I should combine the wine tasting with the web cam model and kill 2 birds… just think of all the creative product placement… I’ll pitch that idea to the respective parties tomorrow… my gifted teacher in 3rd grade once told my mom that one day someone was going to pay me the big bucks for ideas, maybe this is my destiny finally coming through, or I’ve just been drinking too many wine sulfites.
