Ugh! My office is deserted today because of the holiday weekend. It is SOOOO dull here... Here are some questions that were tossed around during various lunch outings this week:

1. What was the worst job you've ever had?
   
2. What DVD in your collection falls under the category "guilty pleasure?"
   
3. Who among your siblings (if you have them) is the "favorite?"
   
4. Are you a winter, spring, summer, or autumn?
   
5. If you could relocate anywhere in the world, job and home included, where would you go?

1. Waiter at the Boone Tavern Hotel Dining Room. On your feet all that time and having to please everyone. Of course I was in college, so I had other things going on too.
   
2. I have the first season of Jem. Truly Outrageous!
   
3. The twin is hands-down the favorite. Though my sister, being the only girl in the sibs, also has a special spot in my mom's heart.
   
4. Actually, I can wear all colors pretty well (so I have been told), but I think I'm a spring, I like greens and blues...
   
5. Ireland, though I have to admit that Toronto and Vancouver look really good to me.

1. Manager for Popeyes Chicken...Loved the job, hated the owner.
2. Harry Potter (all 4 current)
3. As my mom said to my Dad back on July 4th, 1995. "Your Son is Gay, and your daughter is not yours"...so I would say equally favorites.
4. Depends on who you ask, but mainly pastels.
5. Never been out of the U.S., so I would have to do more research.

Interesting questions indeed. I'm intrigued by your twin brother being your favorite. Gad, my sister and I hated one another (my only sibling) and we lost touch, mostly her idea, years ago.

My responses to the questions would be:

1. St. Paul, MN firm that hired me, was incredibly disorganized and then let me go due to their incompetence 4 months later.
2. Movies - Fame, Can't Stop the Music (yes, that one with Bruce Jenner in it), and The High and The Mighty (I can't believe I'm listing a John Wayne movie). I just feel so dirty now.
3. Sadly, I don't have one I'd call 'favorite'.
4. I seem to prefer the autumn colors. I guess it's because I'm so drab.
5. Two choices (other than SF which I love) - South Island of New Zealand (been there, incredible place) or Vancouver, BC (been there several times, would live there in a heartbeat).

1. Every last telemarketing gig that I had. There is nothing quite like calling someone that you KNOW despises your existence and you really can't blame them in the end.
2. Legally Blonde/How High/several BDSM flicks I own *blushes*
3. Don't have any siblings (that I know of. long story)
4. I can throw something together for all of them when in the right mood.
5. Southern Cali, the Bay Area, Amsterdaam, upstate New York

1. I worked for three months at a grocery store as a cart-unloader. Basically, my job was to take the crap out of people's carts and put them onto the moving belt. Apparently, customers who can afford to live Lakeshore get all kinds of perks.

2. This year's birthday gift: Michael Jackson music videos.

3. Me. I was the "easiest": I sat where I was told, I was always quiet, I brought home top-notch grades, etc. My mother practically admitted to me as such that I was the 'favorite'... but then again, she could have told all of us that.

4. Um. No idea. I wear black.

5. I really really love being in Chicago, so I'd prefer to stay here, just a better apartment.

1- Working for SICE. The boss was such a psycho.. he made all of the team to leave the company. Afterwards he was using other coworkers open Yahoo accounts in order to try to know what was going on with out jobs and he threatened us with physical violence several times.
2- Mas que amor frenesi. Spanish movie with the most cliquish dialogues ever. but it was such a cool movie for its time.
3- I have no siblings.. so hard to choose from. No.. I wasn't a spoilt child. No, I didn't kill my siblings either
4- every season has its charm... but I think definitely summer, as it reminds me of my childhood in the beach, playing with my friends in the shore, and with a bright nonburning sun on top of us...
5- That depends .... for single life.. a bright city, any big city. For partnered life, I would rather go to the calm places I know... Mykonos, the green lively mountains of Slovenja, Indian coast, or the (for me) best city in the world to live: San Sebastian.

1- Worst job was being a janitor at the local middle school. Ugh. I hated it. I was in the 8th grade at the time and my mom thought I should have a part time job for money. It sucked.

2- "Can't Stop the Music" with the Village People. It's a classic.

3- I'm the baby in the family. Thus I'm the favorite.

4- I'm an autumn. I look good in orange and browns.

5- I'm assuming with this relocation is an "unlimited money" plan. If so, it would probably be New York. But I would need two houses. One in the city and one further away with a bit a land.
