Holiday Jobs by Zodiac Sign
Put some extra cash in your pocket when you need it
By Jeffrey Kishner
'Tis that time of year again, when everyone scrambles to spend their money on the best holiday deals -- even if they don't have much to spare. But the extra business means there are more jobs to go around! So for those of you who need a second job to make ends meet, or for high school and college students looking to make a little extra dough during winter break, there's a position for you during the holidays. But what kind of temporary employment should you look for? Turn to your zodiac sign for the answer:
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Whether man or woman, Aries is the tough guy of the zodiac. After all, somebody has to make sure customers don't walk out of the store without paying for their merchandise, or ensure the safety of mall patrons when somebody's had a few too many at Applebee's. Strut your stuff and flex your muscles with a job as a security guard this season -- don't let the recent Seth Rogen and Kevin James films deter you!
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
With your love for Mother Earth, as much as you're against cutting down trees, Taurus will feel right at home selling evergreens for families to display in their living rooms for the Christmas holiday. You'd also delight in creating winter wreaths using twigs, dried flowers and other natural materials. And since the sign of Taurus rules the throat, you can use your silky voice to sing Christmas carols this holiday season.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the messenger god -- and somebody has to deliver Santa's presents, right? Delivery services like UPS and FedEx often hire extra drivers or warehouse processors to meet the increased demand this season. And since you like to chat, any type of customer service job will also keep you stimulated.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
The holidays are nothing without food ... lots of it. And who loves to cook more than Cancer? Fortunately for you, the other 11 signs of the zodiac can be too busy or too lazy to do much for ourselves this time of year. That means more catering jobs for you! We want cookies, we want cake, we want a holiday duck (or a vegan, wheat-free mock duck). When you nourish our bodies, you lift our spirits ... and line your own pockets with some extra cash.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
As the brightest sign of the zodiac, Leo's job is to bring joy to shoppers during a dark and cold season. As a holiday greeter, you can utilize your warm presence to make new customers feel welcome -- with the goal of increasing sales, it goes without saying. Your sign is ruled by the Sun, so working as a lighting consultant would come easily to you as well -- somebody has to decide where to string all those bulbs!
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Nearly every gainfully-employed office worker wants to go on vacation the last two weeks of the year, which means companies are looking for temps to handle the workload left behind. Whether you want to be a receptionist or a janitor, Virgo's strong work ethic and organizational skills will make you an asset to any organization. And if you're really lucky, they'll see your worth and hire you permanently!
