They told me to sell tacos.
So, for three months, I sold tacos. I was singlehandedly responsible for four hour waits on Dollar Taco. I learned a lot in this role— mostly the value of humor in social media (as applicable), and my own value as a creative. No budget, no paid marketing, just me and the memes and my Nikon. This job was proof that being a social media manager is a full-time job if you do it correctly, and the work it requires cannot be a thing that the owner does “on the side.” Pay your social media managers, people.
