I'm a Teaching Associate (post reserved for graduate students at my university) for Mathematics. I currently teach algebra (off for the summer). I enjoy my job greatly-- it's 34 dollars an hour; not bad for a part-time job. Many universities simply relegate TA's to grading papers for a professor-- the one I go to actually has you teaching your own classes, and it's your class-- you grade them, you run the class, you lecture, everything. I've taught beginning, intermediate, and college algebra, and this Fall, I'll be teaching pre-algebra, which I haven't taught yet-- so I'm excited.
Awesome job. But Pre-Algebra at a University? Seriously?

I make beer for a living. I love my job. Almost to the point I dont consider a job.
"What do you do for fun?" people ask me occasionally
"I work" is the reply
Its nice to have found a calling in life that isnt related to Jesus or humanitarian (though beer is arguably good for mankind, and brings joy and sustinence) or any of that preachy or unfun stuff.
I dislike my job because I don't feel I get the recognition I deserve. It's a very physical job, and not many people are able to handle it. By recognition I mean monetary recognition. It's the only thing that matters to me at the moment. So I am in a bit of a bind at the moment.
Eh, it's alright. Just something I'm doing to get by college, not something I'd want to do for the rest of my life.
Though it's on campus, so I don't work during school breaks. ( the lack of extra money this summer break is starting to hurt right now ;____; )
My job has its days. Whilst I generally don't mind the work and like the people who I work with, I dislike being called into other departments and managers that love to micromanage my day. I've been working there for almost 5 years, I've never had a customer complaint, trust me.
I work in a supermarket in the fresh produce department.
