Winter: Bobsled, luge, figure skating, speed skating, skiing, curling and ski jumping. Summer: swimming, diving, gymnastics, track and field. not to brag, but i'm gonna. My grandson who is 11 and started swimming last year is going to the state meet this year. And he was asked to swim in meets in different countries in exchange swim meets for young children and teens.

Good morning everyone! Hope your weekend is starting off well. Well it was nice to see that so many of us enjoy watching the Olympics! Lot's of people watch as many of the sports as they can! The top vote getters were Figure Skating and Gymnastics, followed closely by Field and Track, Skiing, and Swimming. Today's question is: What is the worst job you've ever had? I worked one summer pulling weeds out of an 80 acre bean field for a neighboring farmer. Hard, sweaty, dirty work. Hated it.

One summer my sisters and I decided we would have a veggie stand with peas, corn, butter beans, etc. After 3 days we decided we didn't want money that bad. lol Daddy made us gather our own veggie's to sell.

My husband said that his worst job was picking rye out of a wheat field. I've liked most of my jobs, but I guess my worst one was working on a State Representative campaign as the Campaign Coordinator. The guy I worked for was a great guy - good family man - but the "ethics" involved in politics is disheartening. Even the good guys stoop to get money and support.

I'd have to say my years as Beef Jerky, porn star, were my worst. Most of my stuff is no longer available, but I believe "Penis DiMilo", my epic 80's masterpiece is still available. The mullet made me look pretty sophisticated, I don't have to tell you.
