    Nurse

    do i love it....? hmmmmm
    Most days I LIKE it... ish.
    If I were working around animals all day instead of people then I'd LOVE it. :wink:

    I am also going to school for Health Records Administrator (still in health field but not working with patients or shift work) and I HOPE to love it when I'm done in a year.

    I'm a licensed Practical nurse - I'm in occupational health now - after 15years I started to get tired of sick people (sorry guys there's no delicate way to say it)


    I work in a Remote location so I work alone ...another plus ........most of the time ....
    I stil work with people on a daily basis though , I do like people:bigsmile:

    I love it !!!

    Snr Sys Admin for a state education department.

    Love it. I'm my own boss. I get to travel. Meet lots of new people (mainly teachers) and get to play with lots of toys.

    I work as a Shipping/Receiving clerk at a Pepsi warehouse where our main output is Gatorade. Most of the time I love my job, this past week I wanted to stick a fork in my eye (it's our busy season and we got slammed) but I am good at my job and I love the people I work with.

    I'm currently a Psych student. I start Grad school next year. Ultimately, I will end up as a Psychologist with a specialization in addiction.

    It's the best choice that I ever made.

    counselor at a residential apartment program for adults with mental health/substance abuse.

    most days i love it. sometimes i get tired of the drama and these grown *kitten* adults acting like children. when i worked in a runaway shelter for teenagers there was less drama.

    the paperwork isn't bad though, i only have 3 clients and i can sit here on the mfp forums. so yeah, i like it :happy:

    just wish it paid more, damn you social work field! :sad:

    I have my teaching degree and used to teach first grade but now I choose to work at a daycare with one year olds. It's stressful and emotionally and physically draining - and I love every minute...well, maybe not the diapers. ;-)

    is a five guys like a clothing store? excuse my ignorance im from australia ... aparantly we are all ignorant lol
    Five Guys is a restaurant. I've heard good things about their food. - http://fiveguys.ca/en if you're curious.

    I do video game commentary. I like it, but would love it if I actually got paid. It all depends on views and likes and since I only get 3-10 views a day, I earn very little.

    cool thread!

    I work for a University, coordinating bids for research funding. Some days I love it, especially when my bids are successful. I did a PhD in international relations but could never quite figure out how to turn that into a career without speaking a dozen languages and having the CV of someone twice my age.
