Night Supervisor
-
Sep 2004 - Apr 2009
The duration of my degree. I was initially hired as a casual night staff book seller and then promoted to night staff supervisor. I really enjoyed this job because I was able to study full time during the day and work at night. The money earned here allowed me to pay for my text book and transport. The work experience taught me not to underestimate the value of menial labour. The duration of my degree.
