What was your favorite of the many temp jobs Paige had throughout season 6?
Your vote doesn't have to be based on the job itself not being suited for Paige, it can be liked for any reason. You may have found the temp job funny, or just so wrong for Paige it made great viewing, Or the story for it was great.

Compared to all other temp jobs, the main stories and Rose's acting was good in the temp jobs of Love's a Witch and Soul Survivor.

I liked the one where she helped the woman with her sexual harassment. The one with the dragon.

Mine are the Fruit Packer (Three Blondes) and in the Law Firm. Otherwise, the jobs were made for Paige and the storyline, it seems.

The one where she was a dog walker. It was just funny as she wasn't really good at it.

Fitting Paige's purpose in the fact that the temp jobs seemed to have her helping people magically I.E. the guy Oscar who was turned into a dog, the people at the fruit packing plant, the woman Flo at the office, the war between the Montana's and Callaways and the lawyer Larry those five jobs were the best ones for her obviously because they involved her in what they were designed to do basically although the most profound one that got me was the lawyer guy Larry I think.

And there was the weird one when Paige temped as phoebes assistant. That one was the one where Paige finds out that phoebes column that day was indirectly about her and Richard and she ends up having a serious sister to sister talk with phoebe and tells phoebe to butt out of her relationships. And even though phoebe said the reason for Paige getting the temp job was for her (phoebe) to learn to take her own advice and stay out of Paige's life, I think it was more for phoebe to learn how much Paige had it together with the way she organized phoebes office and she needed not worry about her. But that didn't stop both of them continuing to butt into each others relationships throughout the remaining seasons. (Phoebe again with Agent Brody Season 7 and Paige later with Dex in season 8). 😊 |

It's the one I found the funniest for the reasons you said - and I loved Oscar being that season's Bachelor, a guy I had a really bad crush on! Wish he'd remain her guy for the rest of the series! |

Magician's Assistant & Caretaker for the Elderly I can semi relate too. One of my first jobs as a teenager was working in retirement home. I did actually enjoy it.
But receptionist is my actual job, so I can relate even more. Not that I dealt with the problems Paige had at the job.

All this is part of why the sisters could never live magic free lives. As long as Paige kept being a whitelighter magic would follow. Even all her dates were magically connected somehow.

You're right. Paige would somehow have to be like Leo - have her wings clipped - for them to have any sort of magic-free life, and unlike Leo, I'm not sure if she could do that. Leo's powers were given to him; hers were inherited (all part of why I hate the idea of half-anythings), so I'm not sure if that's something she could actually have taken from her. Her powers, sure, but actually being half-whitelighter...I wonder. |

There is a big difference between Paige- and Chris and Wyatt - and Leo
Leo has shown an altruism that cost him his life, proving that he was fit to help people
Paige - and Chris and Wyatt - inherited the ability of the whitelighters, but they aren't spiritually whitelighters
In Paige's temps job, I see her unconscious desire to deal full time with magic, as a witch, so I think it was her witch istinct to guide her in the choice of the jobs

My vote will be based just on which ones I liked watching, and that is Phoebe's assistant and Magician's Assistant (because the retirement home reminds me dears of my own mother who does live in one and still does. But also because the magic show actually *did* happen once at my mother's retirement home, so it has personal memories for me. Even if I am not a fan dears of the episode, that might be my favorite temp job for personal experiences.) and third would be dog walker because it was just so funny dears seeing how bad she was at it.

Probably the assistant at the law firm and receptionist. Still I like to know who was setting these up and for what reason.

The best and most complete plot was that of the lawyer Larry. Paige demonstrated her spirit of sacrifice and her devotion to saving innocents in a great way. It also served to give continuity to her plot as the independent sister. I liked how the drama with her sisters was represented in that episode.
Another temp job that I liked was a receptionist. It was a small but satisfying subplot and it also represented a real-world problem.

I liked her temp job as a Fruit Packer and Caretaker for the Elderly. I like these because they're not commonly displayed nor showcased as jobs people would normally seek out, compared to the likes of a Dog Walker, Receptionist, Assistant in a Law Firm, etc.

I like these because they're not commonly displayed nor showcased as jobs people would normally seek out, compared to the likes of a Dog Walker, Receptionist, Assistant in a Law Firm, etc. You're right, they're not typical jobs people seek out. But I admired the writers giving us a good range of different jobs that Paige had over the various episodes.
I've not done fruit packing, but I've worked in a warehouse temporarily before as a job while looking for better work. It was sorta did what Paige did just not packing fruit with an conveyor belt. The warehouse worked alongside for an organization packing food packages for the less fortunate. So not the same, but close if you can say that, since I used a conveyor belt like Paige.
Voted for Fruit Packer (sorta close to what I've done as a temp job myself) and Phoebe's assistant (because I liked seeing Phoebe and Paige paired like that, like Phoebe being Prue's assistant, I was upset it only lasted the one episode)
