 I have 2 jobs.  Secretary by day, bartender by night.

I still have no car, but public transportation is pretty much getting the job done.

I've lost 10 pounds.  Hooray for biking and walking.  I feel like I should have lost more by now, but I'm working on it.

The new restaurant I'm working at is pretty fantastic.  I'm bartending 3 days a week, serving

I worked at a temp agency after high school and throughout college I did secretarial work at various offices. So yes, I know excel (it's very easy to learn), but I don't have to use Outlook. If you have good typing skills (a high WPM score is a bonus, mine's 75 and most people's are more like 50-60 I believe when it comes to secretaries) and know how to answer a phone, you can be a secretary. The place I'm working at right now is the company my mom works at. I've worked there on and off since high school, so I already knew the computer system and data entry systems they use, which was a plus. It's temporary, but it'll last until November. I'm also editing some literature for them- it's a Refrigerating Specialties company, so I edit brochures on valves and whatnot. They have talked about keeping me on past November just to do editing and they'll pay me more money, so that's exciting
