I was cleaning out my old files earlier this morning when I ran across a folder with pay stubs from all the jobs I worked at from 1999-2003. I must say, I don't remember working 12 jobs in four years! What a horrible employee! Can you say A.D.D.?In case you don't believe me, here's a brief (and somewhat embarassing) rundown. I think they're in the proper order...

Were you a bit like me during your formative college years? Did you tend to job hop?
