High school through college, all in the same place (Toronto airport):
- parking attendant
- cashier
- assistant manager

First two years after graduation (concurrent):
- assistant manager, weekends at the parking lot
- photocopier refurbishing technician

After that:
- computer repair technician
- technical writer + quality control
- senior computer assembly technician + certification technician
- service manager, Eastern Canada
- PC hardware, software, and network support

Oh yeah, and occasional photographer. Not really what I consider a job though, whether I make anything at it or not.
