Are you German? Can you lie?

I will be doing a linguistics project, wherefore I need your help. Can you write two paragraphs in German, not more than 150-200 words. One paragraph should describe the last Job you had, and the other paragraph should describe a fictitious job (as though you had done this job). In other words, for the second paragraph, you must lie. Next to each paragraph, write "Real Job" or "Fictitous Job" (so that I know). Both paragraphs should have the following points:

1) Description of the daily schedule
2) Description of typical duties
3) Your feelings about it

The paragraphs should be as realistics as possible. You must try to convince a jury that the paragraphs (are believable? not sure about that)

The most believable fictitious paragraph will win a prize. You must only spent about ten minutes on it.

I would be very happy if you can pass this on, I need many paragraphs! I thank you much in advance!

That is a rough, quickie translation, sans dictionary. I could do a better one later.
