How about: I got a job as a mailman, but they gave me the sack on my first day.
I got a job at MapQuest, but didn't like the direction the company was going.
I spent some time doing road repair, but it wasn't what it was all cracked up to be.
I went to work at a lumber mill, but I had trouble seeing the forest for the trees, there was a real log-jam of paperwork, and my boss was always walking around with a chip on his shoulder.

then it was on to be a propane dealer but i had bad gas.
i worked at a potato chip factory but the work was pretty crumby.

Yeah, bikebum1975: these ones are... extraordinary in your resume:
Next, I tried working in a Muffler Factory, but that was too exhausting.
My best job was a Musician, but eventually found I wasn't noteworthy.
I studied a long time to become a Doctor, but didn't have any patience.
Next, was a job in a Shoe Factory. Tried hard but just didn't fit in.
I became a Professional Fisherman, but discovered I couldn't live on my net income.
After many years of trying to find steady work, I finally got a job as a Historian - until I realized there was no future in it.
