Got A Cool Job?

There are jobs and then there are cool jobs. You know, the ones that feel more like a hobby than they do work. They’re out there, and young, successful Islanders are doing them. Maybe you’re one of them. If so, we’d like to hear about it!

Fill out the questions below and submit your answers for a new feature called ‘G! Works’. Each month, we’ll feature an Islander who’s got a cool job we’d like to tell our readers about. So, if you or someone you know has a totally out there, they-actually-get-paid-to-do-that job, tell us about it. We want to hear from you!

Send along a photo of your awesomely employed self (1 MB or higher) to Gtalk@transcontinental.ca.
