At different stages of our lives, we have picked up different jobs, which we can say something about. There are lots of experiences we have gotten from the different jobs we have taken. Are there limits to the number of jobs one can take on? I don’t think so. I am currently reading about someone who has taken thirty-two jobs in fifty years.
 
32 Jobs & No Gold Watch by Christine Deeney is the name of this fascinating book in which the author narrates to her children the different jobs she has taken in the space of fifty years. The first work is answering service. She had a friend named Ellen who worked there and recommended the work to her. She got the job, and it was easier working there owing to the fact that her friend Ellen also works there. Working at the answering service was a process, which she gradually learned. She received a call from a boy calling his doctor's office about stomach pain, which turned out to be appendicitis. Later that day, she was commended by her boss for the actions she took. The author also went ahead to narrate the things that her first job taught her before she went on to the second job and others, which I am sure would thrill you. So, get a copy of this book to read more about this mind-blowing job experience.
 
Obviously, I didn’t even think twice before choosing to read this book. Thirty-two jobs in fifty years is not a book I would let pass by like that, no! Frankly, when reading this book, I thought I was sitting down at the feet of an elderly person, listening to her stories. I mean, it felt so real, and I was deeply engrossed in this mind-blowing narrative. I want to first of all commend the author for her strength, who, at a young age, picked up her first job. This was a challenge to me and also to some people. I think rather than being dependent, we could pick up a little job around there. There is so much our first job could teach, just like the author clearly stated what she learned from her first job, which is freedom and independence, which prepared her better for other jobs she took. I loved the writing style; there was no ambiguity; everything was clear and written with the easiest approach.
 
I don’t seem to dislike this book. It is one of the best nonfiction books I have read, filled with experience and humor. I am glad I grabbed something from this book that would help me. The book was thoroughly edited; I didn’t notice any errors while reading.
 
I can’t rate this book less as I have no dislike for it; therefore, I would rate this book five out of five stars. This book is best suited for lovers of nonfiction and those who are seeking a job.

This sounds like a fun read! It made me think of the many jobs I've had throughout my lifetime! Not nearly 32 though! I liked the concept of this being narrated to her children as well. I have never taken the time to reflect what each of the jobs I have worked taught me. Reading your review, it is making me reflect on that! My first job was hauling and stacking hay bales on a farm. It was a tough job for me at my size, when I was only 13 years old. I made 5 cents per hay bale, each hay bale weighed 90lbs! I was exhausted from that work at the end of the day. Did this book make you reflect on your jobs? If so, what were some of your thoughts? I enjoyed reading your review, it made me curious enough to consider this as my next read! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this one with us, until next time...

[Enjani Matendeko]

I do agree that as one works different jobs, one learns a lot of things. However, 32 Bob's in just 50 years is quite a feat. This author must be packed with a wealth of experiences.
