Before they were famous
17 Feb
You know how on E! they’ll sometimes do specials on what celebirties did before they made it big? I’m not a celebirty [in case you didn't know], and no one is asking but in honor of tax season and W-2′s, I thought I’d share my part-time job experience with you anyway.
Places Jovanna Worked Before She Was Still Not Famous
[in semi-chronological order]
1. Blondie’s Diner in Don Carter’s Bowling Alley
2. Dairy Queen
3. Apple Uniform
4. Johnny Rockets
5. Zara
6. Riviera Prep School
7. Bennigan’s
8. Abercrombie Kids
9. Andrew’s Downtown
10. Chubbys
11. Flanigan’s (Belongs somewhere between 3 and 4)
The worst? Tie between Bennigans & Apple Uniform. Bennigan’s is self explanatory. As far as Apple Uniform, I am pretty sure they were violating major child labor laws. We used to have to lift boxes full of school uniforms up and down narrow staircases. That job didn’t last long.
The Best? Tie between Riviera Prep and Chubby’s. At Riviera, I got paid $36 an hour to coach a non-competetive middle school cheer squad. Chubby’s? Hello, self explanatory again.

What about Flannigan’s?! We worked there together…it was my first real job (lasted a month) and you got it for me! LOL
ahhhh how could I forget!! I knew I was leaving some jobs off. I’ll add it in
