Before taking on the job of the dictator of the Soviet Union, Stalin had several "occupations" They were not always ones where he was paid. He began as:

1. Seminary Student. While at the Tiflis Seminary he joined a secret organization which desired his Georgian homeland to become independent of Russia.

2. After being expelled from the Seminary, he gave private education lessons to young students.

3. He worked as a writer for a socialist newspaper.

4. He also joined an anti Tsarist party and helped in a union strike. This placed him in prison.

5. He remained in "politics" and soon became a Marxist and found friends like Lenin to develop his Marxist ideas.

6. He helped in the Bolshevik Revolution and became a paid party leader and held several positions in the new Communist Russia.
