I know, because I did it at Shick Razor in Milford, Connecticut, one college summer. |

We applaud all of your hard work harry... I had a short, undistinguished career while I was getting my M.A., teaching college level English courses to freshmen. The job paid me enough to fill in the holes left by my grad fellowship and my savings. I was pleased to be able to get college degrees that were not trade or profession oriented. Some years later, much to my surprise, while I was working for a Detroit PR/Ad firm, one of my clients hired me part-time as a consultant to teach alphabetization to adjunct staff working on SuperNUCAL, a project that produced the world's largest, dullest book. It was a 29-volume set of the card catalogue of the Library of Congress, with annual supplements to be released. Heady stuff for an etymologist with only an M.A. |
