It’s Progress edition time and we want to hear from you!
This year’s reader submitted question is a fun one! What do you do for a living? Can you describe it in 10 words or less and do it well enough so people can figure it out?
For example, who does this job? “I give people irons and they leave with dimples.” That would be a person who works in the clubhouse of a golf course. What about someone who “relies on measurements to create a good product?” A carpenter? Or maybe a baker. Who would “energize the masses and keep things running smoothly?” I’m thinking that’s a barista.
Let’s get creative and make it challenging for people to figure out. Have some fun! Describe what you do for a living in 10 words or less and submit it to me via email at [email protected] or by mail at Brainerd Dispatch, Attn: DeLynn Howard, 506 James St., Brainerd, MN 56401, no later than July 25.
Include the 10-word description, your name, actual job/job title and city where you live. We’ll publish it like a quiz with the descriptions in one section of the Progress edition and the answers in another section along with your name and city.
The Progress edition will be in the Aug. 30 Brainerd Dispatch and the Sept. 3 Pineandlakes Echo Journal.
