SYNOPSIS
In addition to office work, I have done a variety of other work over the years. This work has included childcare, hostess, waitress, CNA, carrier, janitor, delivery driver, and housekeeping. I have been self-employed as a housekeeper for 21 years. The possibility of office work will reduce physical stress and increase my income.
